Comments
Comments: 2 to 4 inches of snow, some drifting on the ridge. Wore snowshoes all day(most people I saw did as well). The ascent up the steeper sections were a little tricky but not too bad, the snow was covering the ice so you had to make sure of your footing before putting all your weight on the shoe. I did a couple of unintentional butt slides on the way back. be very careful butt sliding, the rocks are not completely covered with snow, I hit quite a few and I'm sure I'll have bruises on my butt };-)
