 | Comments: |
The top half of Jewell Trail is snow/ice. Packed down in the morning, mashed potatoes in the afternoon. I was able to bareboot thanks to the debris from the blow downs. Occasional patches of snow and ice throughout the rest of the route. Softer, slushier snow on Gulfside and closer to Jefferson. Bring spikes. |
