Trails were much better than I feared. Snowshoes went for a ride today. We barebooted the first 1.25 miles then put on rock spikes to the summit. I switched to Hillsounds for the descent. Switched back to rock spikes and then bare boots. Down low, there was no snow left, even in the woods. Above the ladder there was more snow pack, but still not deep. The trail was very firm up high and had been churned before freezing (though not postholed) so it was a bit lumpy and would be annoying to wear snowshoes on. |
