Snowshoes start to finish. We were the first up Liberty Spring trail and across the ridge to Flume. We packed out a nice trail with a few sets of snowshoes. There was a bit of new snow on Liberty Spring and some drifting on the ridge. Unfortunately most of the traffic that day was bare booters and micro-spikes, which churned up the soft snow even after our traverse. Back the same way to repair the damage but expect the folks coming down after us didn't help. |
