Liberty springs was broken when we started at 6am all the way up to Liberty summit. Flume had not been broken. We were 4 in snowshoes and made a nice path to flume as we dodged what felt like 30+ trees leaning over trail. We did our best to release them when we could by shaking snow off. Many others on trail as we descended liberty. Only a couple in snow shoes, so our track may be churned and post holed at days end. Those without snow shoes struggled, snowshoes and televators made our day pretty enjoyable. Trail while packed is very soft. |
