 | Comments: |
-5 degrees, “felt like†-26 at the base with 30+ MPH winds, but the wind was a non-factor once on the trail. Trail was well packed, a few 5’ postholes just inches off the monorail. Final few hundred feet had some unpacked powder due to drifts which snowshoes would help...especially above tree line. Micro spikes the rest of the way were just fine. |
