Dry trail at first. Put on the spikes at about 3,000 feet when it was hard to find a place to step that wasn't covered by snow or ice. The microspikes worked for the ledges, but there is bare rock and ice and slush. A little scary walking with spikes on bare rocks. At 4,000 feet there is a trace of new snow which was very sticky. No post holing today and it was a beautiful morning to be out. |
