| Comments: |
The snow was certainly soft today. I wore spikes until the Avalon junction and switched to snow shoes to up Tom, over to Field and down to Avalon. I went back to spikes after leaving Avalon. The monorail was decent but will continue to deteriorate with warmer temps. The weather was overcast but it was a nice day in the mountains |
