| Comments: |
The slopes were crunchy early and loosened up later in the day. We stayed to the side out of the way of the skiers. We wanted to get to summit A but the trees are bowed onto the trail, laden with ice. There is a trough from previous hikers with some drifts. Very glad to have snow shoes all day. |
