Trail conditions about as good as they get. Best conditions this early in the season that I can remember. We used snowshoes car to car & I would recommend them. Some very deep postholes to the side of the trail. There was some drifting in the last 1/2 mile to the summit. Saw several groups out. No wind made for a great day. |
