| Comments: |
Excellent day with nice views heading up and from the summit cone. 6-8 inches unbroken snow start to finish. Used katoola crampons until Beaver Brook shelter for better traction; snowshoes thereafter. No postholes. Two slightly exposed ree-bar handles on the harder ledge. Ideal snowshoe conditions today for fun and fast descent down the steep section of Beaver Brook trail. |
