 | Comments: |
Down low the road portion had plenty of bare ground sections and flow ice sections. Overall the trail was a hard packed sidewalk all the way to the south summit with very little ice showing. Not much wind and rising temps toward the finish. Great hike today with Hiker Ed, and Silver Fox. Thanks Mark for bringing your saw along. Nice talking with Brian toward the finish. |
