 | Comments: |
Crawford Path was well-packed all the way to the summit - microspikes were useful. From the summit of Pierce via Webster Cliff Trail toward Mizpah Hut there were some drifts, fresh snow, and a good amount of postholes, but after a handful of fellow snowshoers, this should be a bit firmer, though the postholes remain. Mizpah Cutoff was semi-packed (my snowshoe briefly popped off, and I sunk right in on my next step), and full of deep postholes. |
