 | Comments: |
Black Mountain Ski Trail was basically frozen granular from the base to the cabin. Barebootable to cabin.
Black Mountain Ski Trail from Cabin to East Pasture XC Ski Trail - frozen granular as well, snowshoes a good idea. Some postholes.
East Pasture XC Ski Trail to summit - same as last segment of Black Mountain Ski Trail. Heading downhill, East Pasture XC Ski Trail didn't look like it had been particularly heavily used since the last storm. |
