 | Comments: |
Trail super well-blazed in yellow.
A few blowdowns and leaners along Manning, as previously reported by Ken M, seemed stable with today's winds, but could be dangerous if they give way.
Trail was dry and quick going.
Quiet day, saw just one person coming down Firescrew as we headed up, and saw a few peeps across the way on Cardigan, but no one else. |
