 | Comments: |
Very clear and cold. Trail was in fine shape - mostly frozen granular with two short areas of blue ice in the usual spots. Spikes were fine the entire way. Saw that many had bare booted and walked around ice patches off trail. Only saw a few other people willing to brave the cold and wind. Windchill was around -25° at the summit. |
