Nobody on the trail(s) this afternoon. Red Hill Trail had seen some snowshoe traffic, and was easy snowshoeing. No sign of any barebooters, and not a posthole to be seen! Absolutely perfect, and hope it stays that way.
Cabin Trail showed no sign of any recent activity. I broke it out, but with 12"-14" of new snow my single snowshoe track will need some additional love to become nicely packed.
Once past the cabin, the snowmobile corridor coming in from the east was well-travelled. I followed it over and made a quick bushwhack up Red Hill South (deeper snow), then enjoyed easy walking on the snowmobile trails back to parking.
Spikes stayed in the car as they would only have made a mess of things. Snowshoes all the way! |
