| Comments: |
I'm still testing out my tendon issues in knee, so we are doing easy peaks, ramping up for the summer season. The trail is basically barebooting heaven.Some might prefer spikes,but I like barebooting as it lends to good technique and practice for tougher climbs. Snow pack is still deep above Mizpah junction, but the Monorail is perfect all the way up. The cone from WCT junction on up dries out nicely, good dry ledges to relax on and have lunch. Snow hiking in shorts, cannot beat it!!!!! |
