Today hub Steve/I, encouraged by Amy's 'fluffy' Switchback report, went out for a little late afternoon trail delight.

Lower Switchback at this moment is packed, not quite hard. Snowshoe tracks are surface, not impeding skiing. Pleasant, sides fluffy. Nowhere is it deep.

At the meadow we veered into the trees for some "E" (exploratory) and turns, wended down an unknown marked trail to Ellis. Temp at 3pm 37F. Bet
