What a day! Low wind, bluebird sky, and bright, spring sun- a dream... wore "rock" spikes for most of the hike (all the way up and over and part of the way down); switched to Hillsounds once back in the trees. Was a ice only in a few spots; some "corn" snow on Gulfside but overall a gorgeous and pleasant hike, conditions and weather wise. Was surprised to not see more people out, but am happy to have spent the first day of spring in the mountains with Sunshine! |
