| Comments: |
Combo of wet and dry trail for the first mile and a half or so. Then quickly turned into an iced/hardened monorail. Wore only spikes from this point on, until I came back to this changeover line. Some post holes throughout but nothing terrible. Snowshoes took a ride. Was deep up top, on a warm day I’d say snowshoes will be helpful. |
