Great day above tree line. We started early and enjoyed decent views. Virtually no wind on top and moderate temps. The clouds and snow arrived as we descended from the hut down the Ammo. Mt. Franklin was our objective today for Ken A’s winter Trailwrights List; he now has 67/72 done. Bare booted to Gem Pool, snow shoes to Monroe, light traction to Franklin and back to the hut, snowshoes from hut back to the car. Had a pleasant chat with Rachel accompanied by Isis, her friendly and very well behaved Shiba Inu on Monroe. |
