Mt. Garfield via Gail River Loop Road, Garfield Trail, Garfield Ridge Trail
Date of Hike: Friday, February 13, 2009
Trail Conditions: Packed trail, dusting to 2" fresh powder, drifting above 3500'
Special Equipment Required: Snowshoes
Comments:
Parked in plowed out area along side of RT3 ~0.4 miles before Gail River Loop Road entrance. All ice bridges still in place, despite the recent melt. Trail was well packed with a dusting to 1" or 2" fresh powder. The upper part of the Garfield Trail drifted in but still easy to follow. Garfield Ridge Trail drifted in as well. There were a couple of blowdowns on the early part of the Garfield Trail that require a chainsaw.
