 | Comments: |
Practically snow free trail today. Didn’t need snowshoes or spikes to South Moat but still would be smart to carry the spikes with you as the trail is wet and will refreeze. A few spots that were slick but easy enough to rock hop around them.
We continued over to Middle Moat and then started to head toward North Moat but the woods between were still full of deep soft snow that was not enjoyable without snowshoes. |
