Great day above the trees, with some wind but nothing crazy. We wore snowshoes from start to finish, as trails are pretty soft and chewed up below the trees. There was enough snow on the ridge except for a couple rocky areas. Most people were carrying snowshoes and bare booting with spikes. Nice seeing Larissa and Cath near the Greenleaf hut. |
