Conditions were excellent! LLT is a sidewalk. Hi Cannon is solid monorail with a few new inches of snow on top. Used spikes to Dodge Cutoff then put on snowshoes. Most were in spikes but the shoes had televators which helped on real steeps. Ladder is exposed and not an issue. No real post hole issues and unless it gets really warm should stay this way.
Great day out with lighter winds than predicted and the usual awesome views.? |
