Great, blue-sky day but quire windy, but with temps in the mid-twenties the wind was not that chilling. Used crampons up to the spruce (but light traction, or even bare boots would have worked), then snowshoes from there and back down to the same point (and probably could have made it okay without the snowshoes with no post-holing). Margaret and I met Bill and Donna near the top, and then again on way out down in the flats--where we had a nice chat. |
