 | Comments: |
Both Lincoln and Barlow trails are in great shape. Not alot of snow at lower elevation but enough to cover some of the roots and rocks. Higher up there is more snow that is well packed but still a bit powdery. Coming down Barlow we encountered a number of ice flows that covered the trail, so don't forget light traction or you will be going off trail to avoid the ice. |
