| Comments: |
This was an AMC-led hike/ski trip (I was the only splitboarding participant). IDEAL conditions today but a bit chilly to start (0 degrees F). Some of the group took off skis at the middle water crossing where the incline gets a little rough, but, decent skinning up to the summit loop. Barebooted the summit loop to summit - calm and decent views. A fine day out and a fun group!!!
Picture attached is one of the group skinning up the section above the middle water crossing. FUN!!! |
