 | Comments: |
The brooks crossing the trail are iced over from ~2700-3500 ft, thick in spots, some sketchy areas before/after the Watson path intersection, traction recommended. Summit cone/Osgood has some snow but no ice. No one on the mountain all day, it was exceptionally windy ascending Osgood (especially the last 100-200 feet or so up to and including the summit). |
