| Comments: |
If ascending via Mt. Tecumseh Trail to Sosman (left at the crooked summit sign), one can hike to the top without encountering any snow or ice on trail. Heard there still is a patch on the Mt. Tecumseh side of the summit loop.
Sosman Trail to ski area had a tiny patch of ice hiding in a crevasse, but was other wise snow free and generally dry.
Ski trails are generally snow free with some novelty patches of snow remaining. Grass is still very short, so it's a good time for exploration of the ski trails if you're so inclined. |
