Heavy snow today starting at 10:30, a little earlier than predicted, but it was a winter wonderland! Temps were higher around 35 and there was no wind. When we were coming out around 3:30 there was probably a fresh 3-4 inches that had fallen throughout the day. Snowshoes not needed today, but after tonight and tomorrow who knows. Bushwhack was clearly marked and easy to follow, prob the easiest time I’ve ever had! :) Trail pics on Instagram @elizacal |
