| Comments: |
We did the recommended counter clockwise loop up Welch and down Dickey. This trail is completely snow and ice free with only minor mud spots that can be side stepped. The forested area on the descent of Welch has lots of dried leaves that are slippery so careful footing is needed. It was a spectacular day on this trail and the visibility was great. |
