 | Comments: |
I had a tough time setting my pace and getting my layering right today, but once I figured it out I had a very fulfilling hike. Used the Sosman trail to access the summit at the recommendation of two fellow hikers who said that the top of the Tecumseh trail was "hairy." The snowpack was soft enough that I needed snowshoes for the ascent, but I found it much easier to glissade down with light traction. |
