Gorgeous day, but trails had extremely icy sections. 19 MB was basically a low angle ice climb with some frozen mud and water. Ridge was crusty snow with ice here and there; some awkward ice bulges at downhill sections, which required care. Hillsounds worked well. Polecat trail fine. Sunny and mild though; wish there was more snow! |
