Graham 1-31-10 - Views From The Top

We hiked Graham from Millbrook Road. The trail was broken the day before. We didn't put on snowshoes until the turnoff for Graham. There was powder over kind of irritating crusty snow and ice. This is a pretty easy trail since you gain a lot of elevation driving up the road to the trail head, but you miss all that nice sliding down the mountain too. There are some nice views from the summit and it was kind of cool seeing the old telephone poles here and there. We saw a group of 3 after we left the summit and another group of 3 with 2 dogs heading for Balsam Lake Mt.
