| Comments: |
Access road was generally dry and smooth sailing.
Sosman Trail and the upper 500 vertical or so of Mt. Tecumseh Trail had very minor black ice from freezing fog. Fog broke free of the summit around 4:30. Nowhere near enough ice to warrant traction this afternoon. Ground not yet frozen.
Still a little bit of foliage in the lower elevations, but most of the others look to have dropped their leaves.
Managed to get out of the woods just before the horrendous earthquake hit - close call! |
