Dry trail gets snowier as you go up. Icy in the road itself, walk in the grass as needed, microspikes would be overkill. There are active snow guns on the ridge, so I guess this route will be out of play any day now... Great trail run with the dog, well under 2 hrs. roundtrip for 5.2 miles & 2,600' gain. |
