 | Comments: |
Winter is closing in... First sign of ice around 3200 feet and frozen mud/puddles around 3700 feet. Some ice on the ledges made for some cautious scrambling near the summit. All the higher peaks have a good coating of rime ice/snow. The bog bridges were extremely slippery on the Webster Cliff Trail. Lots of water on the trails today made for a wet hike. |
