 | Comments: |
0-3" snow to the first water crossing, 0-6" to Hancock loop junction, 3-15" up over and down. Rock spikes just before the first water crossing, good enough, no real ice up or down. 26 degrees start, 35 finish. Frozen trail post holed from North to South. Snowshoes went for a ride. Winter hiking conditions. Check your gear. |
