Still plenty of snow on the ground. Started with snowshoes which exhausted us so much we unfortunately couldn't bag Willey as well. The monorail was fine in most places and could be done with some traction. Miserable conditions also led to us not hiking to Willey and back as well. It started raining earlier than we thought and the fog blocked any and all potential views. Will definitely go back and bag Willey soon though! |
