Comments
Comments: Trail has lots of ice on it. Surprisingly little snow cover until the turn by the view point. Steep section has packed snow and ice; steps are still visible. Not sure how much snow they got up there last night, but snowshoes are still a ways off. Coming down the ski trail (Tangent) after taking Sosman over to the lifts was a nice way to break up the hike.
