| Comments: |
Bare booted up to just before junction with Garfield Ridge Trail, Hillsounds on at that point due to increasing ice. The last steep bit is one ice flow. Amazing lack of snow for this time of year. Basked in a warm, sunny, virtual wind-free summit with a solid under cast. Great day to be out. |
