Seems a solo went up yesterday so trail was broken down low. In the upper switchbacks on the "nose" plentiful deep drifts obliterated the track. There were three in our group so the track is now somewhat packed but still soft. You will need snowshoes. And be ready for the significant drifts up high. Given the winds forecast I have heard they will be back. Thank you Garret and Deidra for a truly fine day. Hard to beat the Signal Ridge for truly magnificent views! |
