 | Comments: |
Following the mixed precip yesterday, another couple of inches of snow fell overnight.
Trail had only seen boot traffic today and is not well consolidated. I wore snowshoes roundtrip and was hoping my track would set up overnight for the betterment of the footbed, but a barebooter was churning it up (and working a lot harder as a result) a few minutes later. There is now 6 to 10 inches of snowpack, so flotation of some sort (snowshoes or skis) is advised.
Sun never really broke through as forecast, but temperatures made it up to the low 30s.
Support liberty. |
