 | Comments: |
Trails were well packed for snowshoe travel. Used ice axe to help pull up one of the smaller scrambles on the ledges...otherwise, snowshoes provided adequate traction. Blue ice on upper Dicey Mill is covered up and not an issue at this point. Signs of recent activity coming up Sleeper Trail. |
