 | Comments: |
No snow for the first mile or so but it got progressively deeper after that point. About 8" - 10" approaching and along the KRT and to the South peak. Lightly snowing most of the day and raining at lower elevation. We put snowshoes on early and left them on until we hit the mud on the hike down. Mild temps and light winds made for a decent day given the weather. We had the trails to ourselves all day. |
