 | Comments: |
Old Stage Road was teaming with snowmobiles, wide path. There were three of us in snowshoes who broke out Precipice Path (east side 1.4m) past the waterfall up to Belknap Range Trail (phew!). BRT and Red (from Anna to Old Stage) Trails were already broken out but not consolidated so snowshoes are suggested. We met a group of eight happy hikers with snowshoes, making their way back from Anna toward Major along BRT. There were some other folks that were just in boots. Precipice Path (west side 1m) did not have tracks when we went by. |
