 | Comments: |
I wore Microspikes all day. Probably could have just bare-booted. Conditions were deep snow drifts, not so deep snow and some rocks showing but not many. Over by Jefferson the rocks were a little more icy. Folks who came up the Ammo Trail said there was enough snow to get a grip and a couple of dogs went that way. It was very warm today and there was barely any wind. Saw lots of people up there, some doing a Presi Traverse and the rest of us "peak-bagging". What a day! |
