| Comments: |
Trail broken out and easy to walk all the way up. The summit was quite windy and there were no views; plenty of rime on the trees, and visibility very poor. Saw a few people with snowshoes but they tended to lament that they had taken the trouble to wear them. I wore spikes for the upper two-thirds and was glad to have them on a bit of ice here and there under the snow. |
