| Comments: |
Broke trail from start to summit, saw no-one all day, spikes until after last river crossing then snowshoes for the rest. 2-4" powder low increasing to 6" on Twinway. Cold but very minimal wind even at the summit. Great views if Garfield and Washington rising up from undercast skies! |
