    Wildcat Valley Ski Trail

    My wife and I did it last year. It was damp but not that muddy. The only difficult part was the birch glade that Dave mentions. It had chest high undergrowth and the "trail" no longer has a footbed.

    Winter one-day Presidential Traverse vs. cycling century or running a marathon?

    I have done a dozen trail marathons and only one winter Presi traverse. The traverse is way harder. The miles cannot be compared to walking on the wilderness trail or Owl's head.
