Comments
Comments: These trails are well packed making for an easy go. I wore snowshoes all the way but I was in the minority. I'd estimate 75% of the folks I saw wore Micorspikes, 20% wore snowshoes and 5% were bare booters.

Alternating high clouds and sun accompanied the winds and cold temps at the summit. I only saw a few others on ascent but lots of folks on my way down.
