 | Comments: |
Lonesome Lake Trail well packed out up to the Lake. Lonesome Lake above the Lake sort of packed out and Kinsman Ridge barely packed out with some ice under the snow. Used Hillsound Pro Crampons the entire way. Carried snow shoes but they were unnecessary on Lonesome Lake below the Lake, and would not have given adequate traction going up the steep scrambles of Kinsman Ridge. The steeps of Kinsman Ridge make little ol Cannon a bit of a winter hike workout. Rick did his first winter 4K. |
