 | Comments: |
Snow mobile trail packed out solid. Bushwack had a few inches of new snow on it. Liberty Springs was packed out with looser snow as we climbed. Some drifting above the campsites. Loose snow across the ridge. A bit of wind on Liberty with other summits in and out of clouds and snowshowers. Nice fresh powder over to Flume was a blast..we were able to linger a bit in the very light winds there and could make out garfield the Twins and Bonds nicely...clearer towards the south. Nice snowshoe track for descent made for good going. Any signs of people heading over to Lincoln were drifted in. Nice day out with a great group tho we saw no one else today. Still mid winter along the ridge tho we hit some sticky snow patches along the way |
