I’m pretty good shape. The first reroute has been encouraged by someone who set up twigs to block the old trail. The second reroute was not broken today. Looks like most everyone has been hitting the old path and bypassing the junction. |

Trail is in great shape. Hardened up nicely with the Arctic temps. The one other person out bare booted the whole thing. There is some drifting and loose powder just below signal ridge and below the summit, but it was so powdery the guy didn’t make too much of a mess of the trail. We were both in snowshoes the whole day, though perhaps they were overkill. I’d rather wear than carry and I like being in snowshoes more than spikes. Also a big fan of the televators today! The road was also nicely groomed and we were passed by a dog sled team! |
