First Ones Up

We were the first ones on the trail this morning which meant that we got to see all of the pristine wildlife tracks in the snow. We tried to stay off to the side so others could enjoy them as well. Saw coyote tracks and mountain lion tracks which was very cool. Snow on the trail starting about halfway up and very slushy with big puddles just under the surface in deeper areas. It was melting a lot on the way down. Breezy and overcast at the top so we only got teasers of the views we know exist from past experience.
