Mt Rowe - Parked at the old entrance road, then up the snowshoe trail to the towers, over Rowe to Gunstock, partway up the still snow covered slopes, then turned around and reversed, except went on the snowshoe trail instead of the back country ski trail back up onto Rowe.

Trail crew did a lot of midwinter clearing, a lot of small stuff cut off at about 2 feet, must have been the snow level at that point.

Someone had been XC skiing up just above the Tiger chair top station, stil 4-6 feet of good snow cover on the main trails up there. Must have been some heavy duty snowmaking going on all winter.

Still a few patches of snow out in the woods at Ahern, but most of it is now mud. All of the vernal ponds are full. Loops on the bike trails, some of them hard to follow with the leaves and other litter on the ground.

6 x 200 M intervals on the track all at 42-45 sec
Cold and windy - underdressed, could have been misreable if I stopped to think about it.
200m recovery walk in between ~ 2 min

Getting there and back.

Noticable breeze off the lake, not real pleasant out. Dry but raw, temps dropping into the upper 30s.
