Comments
Comments: Frigid but clear and low wind day. Set off with Trail Slippah and Murdah Panda. They skinned up I snowshoed. We broke trail over the Wildcat range. Lots of wind packed snow drifts that are difficult to break. There were a few others out so the route should be decent now. Down to Carter Notch and up to Dome was broken rough. Dome to Zeta a little better but still a little rough. Carter Dome trail down to 19 mile is packed decent but still soft. Snowshoes car to car. Looks like snowshoe season is here to stay for now without any thaw freeze cycles on radar for a while.
