Nice brisk day on Mt. A. Beautiful views Northwest of the mountains I had avoided due to high winds and low temps. Beautiful views all over. No snow or ice on top, but once you get into the side trails you either put those spikes on or you bush whack. Very thick ice floes on the Vultures View Trail.
Road walk back was even nice. I would not drive on this part right now, though, there are some very icy secttions. I would like to return eventually and check out the other trails. |
