| Comments: |
Did an AMC hike up Mt. Liberty on Saturday. Trail was fairly wet in places but did not experience much ice until about 3/4 of the way up. Microspikes were definitely helpful towards the top. Just a trace amount of snow. We were going to keep going to Mt. Flume but the trail off of Liberty was quite icy and very steep so we just headed back and it was getting late. |
