We wore spikes car to car. You could have used snowshoes but I think that they would be a bit much for how packed the trail is right now. However with increasing temps later this week, the trail will soften so please watch for trail changes and wear snowshoes if needed to prevent adding more postholes to the trail. Radar tripped in a few frozen postholes today. Not a nice surprise for anyone, even a dog. The trail is in really good shape overall. Fast trail for sure. And amazingly gorgeous!!! I’d like more days like today. |
