 | Comments: |
A nice day in the snow for Georg, the dogs and me. A couple of inches on the trails - a bit less at lower elevation - had already been packed down by several other hikers.
There are some wet sections here and there, crusted with ice not strong enough to carry weight - but those sections can be avoided for the most part.
We barebooted to the summit, used microspikes for most of the descent. |
