Description:

*This is a nice loop Snowshoe that I will use to check diamond placement.

I am changing this route to go to Tait's Loop via the Tie Trail first. I want to be sure the diamond placement/moving upward is done. Note: THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT CHANCE DUE TO RECENT SNOW THAT PARTS OF THIS LOOP MAY BE IMPASSABLE OR VERY DIFFICULT. IF THE TIE TRAIL IS VERY DIFFICULT, WE MAY STOP AT THE OVERLOOK OF LOWER ROSARY AND TURN AROUND. IF THE SNOW IS EVEN MORE DIFFICULT, WE MAY NOT GET THAT FAR. BE FLEXIBLE.

This is weather dependent and snow dependent.
