| Comments: |
The trail was bone dry thru Greeley ponds trail and half a mile into the Osceola trail. Once the snow appeared, although it was a minimal amount, it made for slippery conditions. I saw one group with spikes, not sure they were doing any better than the bare boots. A couple of icy spots, but mostly it was snow frozen into the leaves that caused the angst.
The section approaching the view point on East Osceola has become severely eroded.
