| Comments: |
Followed Dicey's Mill trail. Someone bare booted it the entire way, unfortunately. Postholers paradise. Lost the trail a few times near the summit, after passing Rollins junction. Followed postholer footsteps but those ended and we broke out our own path in parts. Pretty well packed down now - though we came across another bare booter on the way down. Snowshoes highly recommended. |
