Mixed bag of conditions. Snow shoes were best up Bridal path and most of Greenleaf, toward the summit we switched to traction, I used Hillsounds, After Lafayette the ridge went from snow drifts to ice and then barren rock after Lincoln. Descending Falling waters trail we again used snow shoes. Taste of Spring .Snow was soft & sticky, standing water , trails should freeze up nice for today.Despite the morning with low visibility , we got some clearing and had a great day out! |
