 | Comments: |
Spikes from truck to beginning of N Hancock steeps, snowshoes till the bottom of S Hancock steeps then spikes back to the truck. Very hard packed trails to the bottom of the steeps. Drifting from 2-12" with several spots up to 24" on the ridge. Hard to follow trail in several locations on the ridge. Passed 7 folks so trails should be well packed. |
