Parked at the end of Little River Rd but made the mistake of taking the snowmobile path to Haystack Rd which I used earlier this winter for PAtN. The snowshoe track takes a sharp left immediately over the bridge and comes out right at the bridge by the trailhead. North Twin Trail was well packed all the way up to the summit. The 3rd crossing of Little River was well bridged.
Twinway from South Twin to Guyot was an experience. I occasionally saw slight indentations in the snow from previous travel but attempted to break it out. I say attempted because I was on the trail for probably only about half the time and found the trail corridor to be quite hard to follow. From Guyot down to the Lend-a-hand junction there was a nice snowshoe track and the trail was super easy to follow.
Lend a hand had been broken out but had a few inches of fresh powder down low and was essentially completely filled in above 3400 ft. I took Firewarden back out and it was pretty easy to follow in the dark.
