| Comments: |
The trail from the parking lot to the sign making the Davis Path was nicely broken out with snowshoes. Beyond that it was unbroken powder. We wore snowshoes from the suspension bridge to the summit and back, so the trail is on well on its way to being fully broken out. We saw 12 others on the trail, two on snow shoes and everyone else was bare booting. We were the last ones back to the car, so the trail was mostly cleaned up, but snow shoes are recommended until the trail is fully packed down. |
