Comments
Comments: With warmer recent temps, trail up to Carter Dome and through Middle Carter is what you would expect - soft but easily manageable. Postholes from previous bare-booters made some areas soft and unstable. Anything in direct sunlight was soft and sloppy especially the steep section just below South Carter.

North Carter and Imp Trails were in terrible shape. Lots of postholes from previous bare-booters and very soft snow led to crumbling trails almost the whole way. This was treacherous today and will be even more so after a freeze. Be aware before using these trails - it’s going to be a slog.
