 | Comments: |
Conditions were tough. Soft mushy snow with a fair amount of post holing on the way up but a ton on the way down and wish I had snow shoes. Not another soul on the trail. Once you got past snow rocks were dry and sticky. Beautiful day but melting snow made for rough, slow conditions. |
