im dumb and these hikes were dumb, Liberty was pleasant except there were much higher winds than the last forecast i read. i was going to go to Flume but decided on F that and ill finish this winter on it . my legs and mid section stayed plenty warm with what i wore, but my feet on the other hand lost feeling at around 3000 ft. i actually got a lil worried while on liberty summit and thats when i decided to skip out on flume. got feeling back around the same elevation and boy did they hurt they were so cold. Made it back to the truck pretty quickly and warmed up and put on new socks. drove to cannon and pretty much ran up and down because it was so well packed. i wore snowshoes up and down liberty, and just spikes on Cannon. email me if you wanna see a ridiculously miserable face on liberty before my phone promptly told me to F myself. |
