 | Comments: |
Trail was hard packed the entire way. Nice sidewalk. Microspikes or Hillsounds were all that was needed. You could use snowshoes if you wanted the televators. Some post holes but they were to the side of the actual trail. Bit icy in a few spots but easy to avoid. The rocks were slick up on the summit cone area. Conditions improved as we descended and turned into a fine day out. Saw Brewster, and met Jonas and Rio (good luck with your list) and one other. Great day out with Karen and home for lunch. |
