 | Comments: |
I hiked up ski trails towards Ellen. Towards the top, I took some skier paths and a bushwhack towards the Ellen/Gen Stark Col, hitting the LT closer to Ellen. I walked the well traveled but rotten LT. to the summit. To return I took the spur to the Cabin and bushwhacked in mainly open woods back down to the ski trails. Snow was soft, but fairly compactable. |
