Comments
Comments: Sawyer River Road was clear of snow on our decent, but still GATED!.

The base of snow is still very deep, many feet. We also had 6+ new inches. Micro spikes to 2000', then snowshoes to summit and back. On the long side slop sections the up hill spruce trees are pushing into the trail, taking up 1/2 the width. (Pain in the Butt!). From Signal Ridge to the summit, trail was very hard to follow.
