 | Comments: |
Trail was well packed up to just before hut was able to use micros minor drifting at that point. Snowshoes to the summit and back down to parking area. By the time I was done in the afternoon there was approximately 2-3 inches of new snow.On the frost trail there was some slippery blue ice before the viewpoint no problem though with snowshoes
