Nov 12th 8:30 am.

Beautiful mid-winter conditions. Passmore, Black Prince to the cabin and back, Upper World Cup, Lower World Cup (for a special treat, go up the Maid of Vernon hill near the bridge then go left down to the donut on Montezuma), Montezuma, Wylie’s Loop, and Aberdeen.

Lars Taylor and the remaining trails are not open yet due to open water holes which will require cold weather and more snow.

Come on up and enjoy early winter at it’s best!
