This is a day that I save for the views from Carrigain. No clouds, great views in all directions with abundant blue sky. The only problem was the wind. Still a great day. Saw 14 hikers and 1 dog. Temps from 35 to 70, blue sky and windy. Good trail conditions except for the last mile where microspikes were needed due to the ice. Signal Ridge itself was clear of ice. |
