| Comments: |
Trails were a mixed bag of hard packed powder, less-packed powder, and drifts. Nevertheless, besides the ski trail crossings, any fresh powder was only a few inches deep at the most. Got by in bareboots, but either bareboots, light traction, or snowshoes would work. By the end of today (3/22), the trail should be packed enough that snowshoes won't be necessary, at least for the time being. |
