Beautiful day..what the heck..lets play 2. After Osceolas headed over to Tram at 330 ish.. A little breezey in the lot.. Skipped the snowshoes based on earlier reports and used crampons the whole way which were excellent. KRT well packed out..skipped Cannon Cliffs and belined the summit up the Gladed ski trail. Vista Way was quite icy and frozen granular made us glad to be in crampons.. A bit breezy at summit so we didnt linger. Great footing down the as yet ungroomed trails..(Taft, Ravine, Cannon, Garys) and we arrived back at the car just as it got dark...Excellent day out |
