| Comments: |
A beautiful late winter day on a very beautiful mountain with my friend, Old Man and the Saw. We carried snowshoes but didn't need them. If it warms they will be needed on the ridge. Only a couple of tricky icy spots. The hardest spot was just below the last water crossing where the trail has been filled in and a slip to the side would mean a 20'-50' slide into the river. |
