Gorgeous afternoon. I only had a few hours to hike before dark and this was a great choice. I had not been here in a few years and never this time of year. Trail had everything; snow, ice, dry, wet,etc. There are serious ice floes near the top which were pretty soft today but will be harder if we get severe cold before much more snow. Microspikes worked well today. |
