 | Comments: |
The road walk and the Winslow Trail were broken out but not consolidated, so I wore snowshoes for the entire hike to help pack things down. Some drifting near and at the top as well. The Barlow Trail was not broken out, so prepare to break trail if you come here and plan to take that trail. |
