 | Comments: |
Trail was dry to start then got wet and turned into patchy snow and then deeper snow. About 8-10 inches up high. Some minor mud and small puddles from snow melt. We put on our spikes just below West Tecumseh and kept them on to the summit and back to about the same point. We found the spikes helpful but one could most likely make it with out. |
