What a beautiful day to bag two more 4Ks! The skies were clear, there was no wind, and the views were excellent! It became cloudy when I got back to the TH, so I lucked out.
I wore snowshoes for the whole hike, but at the moment one could bareboot to the loop junction; after that, I would recommend snowshoes, as many parts of that part of the Hancock Loop are drifted-in.
#30 and #31 are in the books! |
