Gale River Road is dry. Once on Garfield Trail, dry trail with muddy sections for 1.5miles. Used old micros for half mile then switched to Hillsounds which gave us better grip. Saw people using both micros and Hillsounds today. Stayed in Hillsounds until summit. Beautiful undercast and amazing views. Fun day out with Gypsy Hiker! Snowshoes went for a ride today but as temps warm up, they may be needed for higher up. |
