| Comments: |
Hike started out warm with bare ground, then muddy with running water, Snow at higher elevation was frozen nicely and my snow boots had good traction , did not break through the snow or need to use traction although some may prefer light traction. Socked in summit but beautiful winter wonderland .Saw only 2 people , Lisa and Rick on the way out , was Happy to run in to them. |
