Ice most of the way, luckily the ice was softening up and it was easy to get a good purchase with sharp spikes. After Starr King the trail was in great condition to the summit of Waumbek. Met Larry on the ridge and Chris toward then end. I was excited to squeeze this hike in before the rain moved in! Happy Leap Day :) |
