Trip Report

We were met with new snow, 18-22 inches deep....The weather report was miss leading, 3 inches were predicted...The snow park had been plowed....In a snowstorm they are usually the last thing to be cleared.....More blue diamonds have been put up but the trail could use more....Some basic pathfinding skills are needed...
