Comments
Comments: Scaur Ridge Trail is lovely. Lots of spring flowers in bloom and no snow. Upper Pine Bend Brook Trail has snow/monorail starting at ~3600. We used spikes on a mostly stable monorail. Some bare spots on the way to South Tri, mostly on south-facing sides. Met only two hikers today (mtn. bikers on Livermore Trail don’t count), on South Slide which is steep and loose but free of snow and ice. Some muddy spots on remainder of MTT, worse as you get closer to Livermore Trail.
