Chilly start with sunshine. Greeley Ponds Trail was recently broken out and in fine shape. Broken trail continued to ponds. Two of us started to break out Mt Osceola Trail through most recent snow depth. Two young hikers caught us about a mile up and assisted breaking trail to the peaks. Trail conditions still rough with powder snow on top of ice and rocks. Slow going on the steeps up and down. Caution should be taken decending where hidden rocks and roots can cause trips. Great to run into Skip and Dee.
Windy on East Peak and the ridge. A great day out with Gary T.
