Comments
Comments: Cold start to the day. Garfield Tr was in good shape and we made good time. Dry trail early then trace amounts of snow at higher elevations. Some stretches of ice that requires good foot placement especially a 0.1 mile section on the Garfield Ridge Tr. going up to the summit. However, the summit is free of ice. We carried microspikes but didn't put them on.
