Comments
Comments: Trail was broken out beyond Mt Suprise to about 1/2 mile before Mt Moriah Summit. Some minor drifting on Mt Surprise covering up the trail, but easy enough to follow. I started to break out trail closer to summit of Mt Moriah but being solo and not able to keep sight of the trail abandoned my attempt roughly 200 yards from the summit.
