 | Comments: |
We were excited to arrive at the trailhead to see that the trail had been broken out. The snow is still uncompacted with 8-10" at the beginning & at least 2' at higher elevations. Five of us wore snowshoes from door to door, so the trail is well-packed out and easy to follow. Snowshoes are a must. Total time 7 hours 30 minutes. Big shout out to Ashley & Bryan who signed the guest book at the cabin for doing a LOT of work on 12/18. |
