Comments
Comments: Used microspikes on lower part of trail - through the glades - and snowshoes beyond glades to summit. Trail was choppy in places due to warmer-weather barebooters (and postholers). Trail was generally firm, but softer snow from Rim Trail junction upward. No ice problems, but some patches may be exposed with much more snow melting. There was a little bit of new snow from the upper parts of the glades upward.
