Comments
Comments: The trail is hard packed and barebootable to within 100 vertical feet of the top, where from the end of the track to the top is completely drifted in; hence, snowshoes may be helpful here. Excellent views on the summit- even better than the first time I went, which was before the illegal viewscaping took place. Up and down in 2 hours 20 minutes. A morning well spent!

PS: this conditions report may be useless after this weekend's storm...
