All trails in good shape. Used snowshoes all the way except roadwalk. Temps from 0 to 20 with clear sky and a light breeze at times. Saw only 2 hikers on the hiking trails and several hundred skiers and boarders on the ski trail. Some loose snow on ice made it difficult to climb at a few spots, had to get help from trees along the trail. Great views of the northern Presis with the clouds blowing over the peaks. Great day to be out. My 37 & 38th W4K. |
