Weather outcome and visibility today were a gift, amazing day, used snow shoes all the way to the summit, considered heading to Lincoln but the ridge was very windy, pretty icy and we didn't have crampons (other than those on our snowshoes). We swapped the snowshoes for micro spikes and beat feet for lunch and hot coffee. Great views, great company, absolutely beautiful day all around. |
