 | Comments: |
Cloudless day! Just a few folks for such a good day. Views far, but slightly hazy with S wind. No significant mud on lower trail parts as long as it doesn't get warm. 1" snow @ half way; maybe 2" below peak. Recommend microspikes from trail junction to peak; not necessary to that point.
Kestrel data: T=10F W=8-12mph WC= 10-12F |
