 | Comments: |
Trail is in great shape-packed powder, a little loose on the steeps but all in all, in fantastic shape. Barebooted up the loop and then had microspikes the rest of the way. Most hikers were barebooting but saw a few people with snowshoes on. Snowshoes would have been helpful on the ridge walkway between both peaks. |
