| Comments: |
Some bare spots in first mile but otherwise soft Spring snow bottom to top. Ascended in snow shoes, descended bare boots. Doable in bare boots but slippery and lots of post holing. Trail from Mt Cabot to Bulge not broken out and couldn't find trail markers. Thought it had been broken but all the snow falling from the trees must have obscured the tracks. Rime ice is gone. |
