 | Comments: |
Signal Ridge trail was in excellent condition, but as Cath warned me at the 2.2 mile mark where the trail takes a sharp left, many had gone straight, and even after warning some other hikers they had still taken that path, being it was more packed out. Be careful at that point, and if you negotiate that section, the rest of the trail is in excellent condition. The Ridge is well blown off of snow, and the actual trail to the summit is in good shape, but the bushwhack done by Eric is still available.
We found conditions the best ever of any time I had hike this peak in winter.
Congratulations to John Stevens and Patrick Murphy in finishing there
