 | Comments: |
If you insist on barebooting or Microspike, please posthole your own local trail. A parasitic postholer was possessed to bareboot up the neighborhood cross country ski track, so that's partially destroyed.
SNOWSHOES or SKIS are needed right now to float on the soft snowpack. Temperatures were above freezing last night, so the snowpack was already soft at sunrise. I did what I could to clean up some of the bareboot mess on the snowshoe track, but did not attempt to fix the ski trail.
We've been in a snowshadow this year, so the snowpack is not tremendous, but it is over a foot deep. |
