Great day out! It was about 10 degrees, but the sun decided to come out and you only really felt the cold on South Twin as there were about 25-30 mph winds. It really cleared out as the day went on. There is some fresh powder on the trail- only a couple of inches. Heading up to South twin there were a couple of slick spots, but microspikes did the trick. Saw a rabbit at the Galehead hut too! |
