Used microspikes up & back. Carried our snowshoes, but after talking with the Hut caretaker, decided to leave them and pick them up on the way down. Trail very well packed down. Not quite as packed between North & South, but still OK with spikes. Some icy spots on Fishin' Jimmy, but there are side paths around them, so no real problem. Had great butt sliding down FJ trail. Saw only the new caretaker for the week heading up as we arrived back at the parking lot. |
