I waited for late morning to start this hike due to the overcast and fog. I was rewarded with something I had not seen before. The fog was thick as I climbed the trail, as I got to treeline the fog was now an undercast and there was about a 600 foot gap with limited views then the overcast was above the peak. Really neat to see this. Temps were from 20 to 35 and no wind which made it very nice. Some snow flurries also. There was ice on the trail above 3000 feet. Used stabilicers on the last mile up and back down also. Another great hike. |
