 | Comments: |
Up trail was in great condition to skin. Met 3 other hikers, one in small snowshoes, the others barebooting and trail seemed solid enough. Summit area was predictably ice, rock, heavy rime. Ventured into the woods to try to ski on the lower half of Carraige Rd, but the buried breakable crust still makes it all but unskiable, but certainly no fun. Comments on upper half of overgrown Carraige Rd. above - really needs some work if it's remain a ski trail. |
