Comments
Comments: Monorail packed down due to many feet. Very firm, stable snow. Snowshoes not necessary. 40 Boy Scouts w/ 11 adults went up yesterday and down this morning. Many other folks on the trails today. Spikes on @ ~4,000' and off above the hut. Back on again at the top of Falling Waters and off @ ~3,000'. Nice day out w/ Bill Schor.
