The good news is that there are no post holes on any part of this trail!
The less good news is that no one else has touched it since the last storm. Wear your snowshoes and prepare to face several inches or more of unconsolidated snow at all times. That said, conditions are pretty good with the two road walks being well packed, and the trail in perfect shape to firm up after a few more hikers pack it down.
Also, wear your snowshoes on this one for at least a few more days.
Did I mention you should wear snowshoes?
Snowshoes. |
