Comments
Comments: Late afternoon up trail. Nice conditions for snowshoes at high elevation but can use microspikes or bareboot (with care) since it’s packed. More snow coming, though, so my snowshoes in car till June probably:). 2-3’ drifts up top at Starr king & K ridge .

If I had a saw, would have taken some of blowdowns out.
