 | Comments: |
Old Mountain Erode hadn't seen much use since the most recent small snowfall. Quite a few places with diverging troughs. Still some wet/slushy spots in the eroded areas, but easy enough to get around.
Crawford Ridgepole was choppy, as some barebooters decided postholing season has begun. I did my best to smooth this out. One to two feet of snowpack on the ridge because of the drifting.
Temperatures only touched around freezing last night, so the snowpack is soft. Snowshoes are the way to go to keep things in good shape for those who will follow on these particular trails.
Lakes look to be fairly frozen over with a few open areas.
Support liberty. |
