| Comments: |
Sidewalk conditions with a thin top crust of chewy mashed potatoes in the open glades with exposure to that hot afternoon spring sun. Tendency to slide off the bottom edges on some sloped sections and punch thru the top layer into softer snow, minimal postholing. Somebody had the joy of going over towards the Bulge without spikes, I wonder how that worked out, not broken out towards Terrance Mtn from the Kilkenny and Bunnell jct, shockingly neither is the spring spur |
