 | Comments: |
Hiked up the Bolles Trail to around 2000 ft. Hard packed under a layer of new snow that gradually increased up to 3-4 inches. The trail could easily be barebooted, however we used snowshoes to improve traction over the water crossings. In addition to all the water crossings, the trail included numerous water and muddy spots that required navigation. |
