Holy blow downs Batman! Wildcat Ridge wasn't too bad, but the Carters are a hot mess. North Carter tr wouldn't know a water bar if it tripped over one. |

 | Comments: |
Ski trail is a combination dry, mud, sloppy snow. Wildcat Ridge and Carter Moriah still have a surprisingly solid, if quite narrow, base. Spikes went on just after the ski patrol hut and stayed on just past the junction of North Carter and Imp. Very little snow and mostly exposed rock coming for the steep section of Carter Moriah coming up from the hut. Grueling day, but not as bad as I'd feared it might be. |
