Two questions please:
1. Anyone know conditions of Garfield Trail?
2. Thinking of doing this on backcountry skis (brand spankin' new metal edge Fischer Europa 109 skis with Volle 3-pin bindings and Karhu Convert boots) and I have no telemark experience but should be able to pull off a snowplow as I am decent apline skier. Goodman's book mentions that this trip is of "moderate" difficulty but my AMC "Winter Trails" map rates it as "most difficult". Will I survive on BC skis?
Thanks for your advice.
David
