| Comments: |
Great day today with some new snow on the trail. Most of the trail was very neatly packed and easy to follow all the way to the summit. From the South peak to the north peak there were some drifts that needed to be packed down. Started with snow shoes until the north peak and switched to spikes for the descent and walk out. |
