| Comments: |
Trails are snow-covered save for bits of bare rock on ledges and short snowless sections on lower Dicey's. Snow is very deep on the ridge. Supportive rail is softening in places. I observed some hikers postholing a bit, but never too bad. Snowshoes seemed to be the only good choice for me. That said, I did not observe anyone else wearing them as they walked along several feet of snow. |
