Trip Report

Our group of four drove up to Maxwell snowpark where we found overcast skies but great snow conditions The Mountain View Loop trail was untracked so we had to break trail for most of the 3.5 miles to the shelter. At the shelter the wood stove was already lit giving us a warm place for our lunch break. We had to break more trail on the Cutoff Loop back to our vehicles giving us a total of 7 miles for the day.
