Comments
Comments: Took advantage of warmer temps to visit these peaks. Quite windy once up on the ridge but I stayed in a base layer all day. Trails near summits had a fair amount of ice which bordered on needing traction. I choose to go without traction as did the other 3 folks I saw. New snow on top of this ice could make it interesting. Super day out with clear views.
