 | Comments: |
Bare booted to the summit of East - well tracked. First tracks / broke out to main peak, although many came along behind me, many without snowshoes. Not icy at all - some crust with dusting to 2" on top. Had to bushwhack around the bypass as there was 3-4' of snow on it and my golden could not get up it. |
