Comments
Comments: Trail is well consolidated with about 3" of powder on top. I used microspikes in lower section then switched to snowshoes for climb...mostly for the televators. Most folks were using microspikes or bare booting it. I'd suggest microspikes or snowshoes for the additional traction. Several people skied and snowboarded down. Looking at earlier post...I lucked out...it was nice and clear with beautiful views when I was on top around 3. Very windy. Timing is everything.
