Comments
Comments: Packed trail all the way with from 2-5 inches of snow as we ascended. Trail a little choppy over the first mile plus but fine thereafter. Used microspikes to the top and down to Bunnell Rock and snowshoes to the car. Microspikes would have been fine all the way as would have snowshoes. Another hiker barebooted all the way. Cold but beautiful blue bird day. Slight breeze was compensated for by bright, warm sunshine. Great day out with Kara and Scott. Great seeing Postal Patty on back at the car.
