 | Comments: |
Trails are probably only a few days away from needing to be put on the shelf for awhile to thaw/dry. Still full snowpack, but slush, running water, and mud are starting to emerge. Remaining snowpack is generally about 4 to 8 inches.
Lower portion of the trail could be booted or spiked this afternoon. Above the mud bog (just starting to re-emerge), snowshoes were optimal due to lack of use, particularly on the summit loop. |
