Kinsman Ridge Trail: bare and dry at first, then patches of monorail that’s relatively stable up through the glades. The last few tenths leading up to the first outlook (after the sharp left turn) is the deepest and occasionally unstable, but not too bad. A few patches of snow and deep mud up to the Rim Trail junction, but otherwise mostly bare. Light traction helpful for the descent down from the outlook
Rim Trail: not much snow, no need for traction
Conditions better than expected, but this will of course change day to day! Really lovely views from the tower. |
