 | Comments: |
Lot of snow after the recent storm on Thursday. Someone had skied in a couple miles and turned around. We packed out the trail for another 3 mi or so, turned back around Moose Falls Campsite. Peak looked like it had exposed rock and ice. Someone came up right after us, might have finished off the trail. Heavy snow on the ground due to the warmer weather that day. |
