Comments
Comments: the road was crusty and showed signs of prior travel. we thought we had the start of the trail, but soon lost it and bushwhacked up in open woods. shortly before the summit we walked onto the trail and used it the rest of the way. descending we decided to just use our tracks and not try to break out the trail. breaking was generally 6-8" with deeper areas and breakable crust being the biggest variable.
