 | Comments: |
Got a quick hike in here before the rain started. Trails were a combo of very thin snow and bare ground. No traction needed. These conditions will of course change with the incoming snow on Sunday night.
From the summit I bushwhacked down to the recognized Concord high point, then continued down through the woods to Tower Trail. The Swope Slope Vista has been vastly improved by logging in recent years. There has also been extensive logging on the private land adjacent to the trailhead. |
