 | Comments: |
Wet trail but no snow below the water crossings. After the 3rd water crossing snow on trail, fairly quickly getting to a depth of 6 - 8 inches. Snow was wet and slippery, microspikes/hillsounds a must on the way down (we would have done well to wear them on the way up but we did not only putting them on when we got to the ridge. |
