 | Comments: |
We started before the snowstorm. Trail had minimal snow with barely any coverage until we got 3/4 of the way up, then it was a packed firm sidewalk with a bit of drifting on the ridge. The snowstorm began while we were on the summit. About three inches fell as we were coming down (we got back to the car around 4pm) with likely a few more inches falling later since the storm went into the evening.
