 | Comments: |
Conditions today turned out better than expected. At lower elevations later in the day, we’d posthole if we went off the center of the trail. We didn’t need snowshoes because the snow stayed relatively firm. At upper elevations the snow was firm on and off the trail. Between Field and Willey, we lost the trail several times, but found it relatively quickly. Sorry for our misleading tracks! |
