| no partners | | I have always liked Barnhardt after a little snow, so I headed there this morning when I heard some snow might have fallen in the area. The dirt road heading to the trailhead was a little slick and dicey in spots, but I managed fine and just collected a lot of mud on the way in. There was a hunter at the trailhead getting ready to go out when I arrived, but other than that only saw two other people the entire day and broke trail through the fresh snow on Barnhardt the entire day. We turned around at the divide.
There was snow all the way down to the trailhead and it got progressively deeper as we climbed. None of the fan favorites were flowing and other than the couple inches of snow, it is clear that it has been a dry winter out there. The snow may have hit five inches deep as we approached the divide, but it generally seemed to be in the 2-4 inches depth ranges. After a small break at where Barnhardt meets the AZ Trail, we turned around and returned the way we came. We were quicker on the return because of the downhill, but finished pretty beat due to a long day hiking in the snow.
