 | Comments: |
Snow falling entire hike. Three inches or snow on the way up. Trail had been packed from previous storm. Summit approach was a combination of deep drifts and exposed rock with some ice. Spent about 15 minutes on the summit. Our tracks were already covered on our descent by falling and blowing snow. We used a combination of traction and snowshoes. Tripped a few times by catching rocks during our descent of the upper Glencliff Trail. |
