Comments
Comments: It rained/snowed/hailed on us for most of the hike. We used our rain gear, hats, gloves, and light traction. There was some ice on the trail between Field and Willey and the upper part of Avalon Trail, but putting on simple traction pretty much took care of the issue. We didn't end up putting on traction until we got to Avalon Trail. The views on the summits were just gray cloud.
