lots of postholes after the thaw. wore micros up tuckermans and switched to hilltones going up lions head due to some significant ice. switched several times from hilltones to bare boots all the way to the summit. Tons of exposed rock above lions head. Clouds were amazing today! Great day with Mike K |
