Comments
Comments: Blueberry Ledge and Rollins unbroken.
Ledges filled in heavily with unconsolidated snow. We did our best to pack it out.
Rollins filled in with drifts to 3 feet. Cornice forming in places alongside the bowl.
Dicey's had one set of out and back tracks on it.
Great day in the woods with Eric and Tim and the Traildoggies.
Congrats to Eric on 571 and 572!
