 | Comments: |
This was an easy trail to do today. Care was taken on the crossings and on the steeps. I used no traction or snowshoes as the snow and ice was not thick and not deep. There was no traffic over to Little Hay Stack and only two sets of prints headed over to Flume today. No views but that didn't matter for this favorite peak. Conditions will change over the weekend as a warm up is expected so, monitor the weather and gear up accordingly. |
