Took Bob's advice from Wednesday to skip Whiskey Jack, started from Elk Pass. Air temp +2, but snow thankfully still -5, so plenty of grip with Swix VR45. Tracks still in great shape with only mild to sometimes moderate pine needle infestation. But on Blueberry Hill the pine needles multiplied, so turned around after 1 km. Elk Pass to top much cleaner, and Tyrwhitt to top of the open area excellent. On return to Elk Pass picnic table, met groomer Dylan and friend. Thanked him and crew for great work.
