 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Many blowdowns on Osceola trail, worse toward the East Osceola summit and between peaks. Most could be stepped over or ducked under, but there was one I had to crawl under on all fours after removing my pack. Some areas of significant mud, moreso on Greeley Ponds Trail. Sank up to my ankle at one point. |

 | Comments: |
Trails were in rough shape after the storm, but doable. Did the hike without microspikes but wished I had them on the descent, as more ice formed as the day went on. |
