It was a gorgeous day and not even windy til the end at the top. Wasn't expecting that we needed snowshoes but they would have been helpful since about a mile up is were snow appeared. there is still a decent amount on the trail and post holing was happening everywhere. the top is bare as well as anything out of the treeline. I slipped on a wet and muddy rock. All in all can't wait til that last snow melts. |
