Willey Range Tr from Field to Willey has two low hanging learners that could easily be cleaned up with a hand saw. Not major issue to avoid now but with more snow will become more problematic. This area could also use a brushing back but then it always needs that. |

Bareboots up to just above the Avalon/A-Z junction then microspikes the rest of the day until the low section of A-Z on the return. A-Z was icy in the AM but could be avoided (all melted in PM).
There was WAY MORE snow than we expected based on earlier in the week hikes.Not enough for snowshoes but getting close. Spikes worked great and never had any issues except having to make sure of good foot placement as you could not see what was under. Windy in spots but overall a great day. |
