| Comments: |
It was a beautiful clear day, lots of hikers out having fun. Most people wore spikes, a few in show shoes. The trail was mostly solid, some sections that get lots of sun were soft. However, the trail was postholed from the warm up earlier in the week, but we had no issues navigating the trail. |
