 | Comments: |
- Tuckerman ravine has snow on trail for last half mile or so to Hermit Lake, it's still solid with a slushy top few inches
- Lion Head summer route is bare bootable, down to rocks except for a few sections of snow, past Alpine Garden trail juntion theres a couple tenths of a mile in the snow but traction not necessary
- Lawn cutoff, Davis Path, Boot Spur to Boot Spur Link is fine
- Boot Spur Link below treeline has a few feet of firm slippery snow and the trail is of course steep, snowshoes and poles are your best bet, without snowshoes postholing will be getting worse as snow gives out |
