Sherburne Pass lot empty at my mid-morning start....strange for a sunny Saturday. Trail had a firm base with an inch of so of loose powder on top. Neverless, wore snowshoes all day because of general roughness down low and severe postholing higher up, particularly on Pico Link. After intercepting the ski trail, took the trail to the cabin for a more bucolic hike....no wind, sunny ski....However, descended ski trails to the lower LT junction to avoid Pico Link postholes. |
