| Comments: |
Trail to the Face is fine. Good monorail. Bare rock at Face lookout. Snow depths increase as the monorail becomes unstable. Post holing in snow shoes, wet soft sticky snow. Past the N.Carter Tr trail becomes unstable in many places. Post holed in snow shoes too many times. Great day to finally complete the loop. |
