 | Comments: |
Blueberry ledge trail was in good shape all the way to the junction with Kate Sleeper. No ice on the ledges, just a lot of snow. It was soft from the warm temperatures but still mostly firm and no issues with snowshoes. Quickly tagged Whiteface before heading down Kate Sleeper trail. This is much less traveled and less firm. Postholed several times here even with snowshoes. The trail was easy to follow, but it's waist deep in some spots so be ready. Retraced back out the same way. Once the refreezes this weekend it will be a sidewalk |
