Comments
Comments: 1-3” down low on a somewhat bony trail gave way to increasing depth and drifts as we ascended (possibly 5-7” of new snow)…ALL the ledges above and including Mt Suprise had solid ice underneath the new snow…we did bring K-10’s but were able to stay in our snowshoes, sliding tree to tree… use caution on this trail..enjoy!
