Comments
Comments: Top half of Mt Garfield trail was icy. 0.2 miles to summit on Garfield Ridge Trail was very icy. Val used microspikes on the water crossings and stayed dry. Only saw one other hiker out today. 15F at the parking lot, about 20F at the junction with a light wind but enough to generate a little windchill. Even the summit wasn't too windy.
