 | Comments: |
The trail was clear and dry to Crawford. From Crawford to Stair to Resolution to Parker it was difficult with 1-3 feet of soft snow. There is no monorail to support you so you will posthole often. From Parker down it was clear and dry again which was a great relief. So hiking to Parker or hiking to Crawford as out and backs would be very pleasant but doing a traverse as we did, it may be best to wait a couple more weeks. |
