Buiscuitman broke this trail out yesterday, but it was covered with 5" of fresh snow. Deep drifts on the ridge of the false summit. The final pitch up to the top was completely drifted over and difficult to follow. The rim trail was knee deep but we broke it out. Should be good until the next snow. If you follow our trail Saturday, when going up the final pitch to the summit the fork to the left which we broke out while coming down follows more accurately the summer trail. The fork to the right will take you over to the ski trails.
