Great hike to the Osceola's today. A few wet spots on the Greeley Ponds trail but starting to freeze over. Mt Osceola Trail was as steep as usual. There is 2-4 of inches of snow down low and 4-6 up high. It was mostly stuck to the rocks which helped with traction. Used Hill Sounds the entire trip. Everyone was in micros except a couple of lady's using snowshoes. Light traction was the better choice today with the minimal snow. Lots of hikers today. |
