| Comments: |
Snowshoes for another day or so, then probably best to be avoided for awhile.
Old Mountain Road had 6-10" of soft snow with some slushy areas and the normal running water.
Crawford Ridgepole ranged from 3" to 2 feet of snow due to the wind. Unfortunately, an inconsiderate postholing Microspiker decided to trample vegetation on the sides of the trail to try to get around the drifts. IF YOU'RE DOING DAMAGE TO THE TRAIL, TURN AROUND AND GO ELSEWHERE. |
