| Comments: |
Trail not broken since last snow. Wet, sticky snow, that gets deeper then much deeper upon ascent. Staying strictly on trail helps. Trail sometimes was difficult to follow. Ledges were snow covered with fairly deep snow. Possible icy patches underneath. We used Microspikes and then crampons. Snow mushy in afternoon. Significant postholing. Snowshoes might be desirable. |
