 | Comments: |
We ran into ~ 6 hikers. Half bare-booted (we bare-booted), the other half had snowshoes on. One guy we ran into was snowshoeing but regretted it (he took them off on the way down). There was about 5 inches of fresh snow the night before, and there was light rain that became snow about 1000 ft up from the trailhead.
Trail was fine, no major issues. No need for major traction. Poles are recommended. |
