 | Comments: |
The trail is nicely stabilized right now, but may change with the even warmer weather heading in. I was able to bareboot to the Hancock Loop. I used snowshoes to head up to North, and left them on through the maze of trails over to South. Snowpack is incredibly deep - views almost 360Ëš from North Hancock. |
