| Comments: |
Mt Hale via Fire Wardens trail to ski some glades. Trail is packed down, and some parties managed with bare boots. Would recommend snowshoes or skis to keep the surface smooth.
For skiers, base is solid but low. Lots of brush sticking through makes finding a clean line difficult. Could use a foot or two to more fully cover the brush up.
