Thanks to BillC who was able to hook up with me at the last minute. Probably would not have done this hike alone though there were a lot of people out today. Under the clouds all day so had great views in the grey light. Edmands, Webster Cliff and Webster Jackson have a lot of blue and some black ice. We used spikes almost all day. Saw several groups w/o spikes and they were slowed considerably. Quite cold and windy but nevertheless a great day out |
