 | Comments: |
We broke trail all the way, snowshoes worn all day. Powder snow about 8 inches at trail head and maybe a foot above 3,000 feet. Square Ledge steep section had some thick ice sheets but the snowshoe crampons did fine. The last steep section to the summit was very difficult as there is no base under the powder snow so we were hitting rocks. |
