 | Comments: |
It looked like one person broke out the trail after the last snow storm.
I used snowshoes from the trail head and all the way back to the car.
Down low probably on a few inches of new snow from Tuesdays storm and around 8”+ up high on the trail.
The snow is unconsolidated and fluffy so snow shoes should be worn to pack down trail.
Only saw one other hiker all day and he was wearing snow shoes too! Yay! |
