 | Comments: |
The trail is packed powder and in excellent shape. From start to finish wore hillsound crampons(microspikes) without issue. Winds on ridge were very intense despite being wooded. Descending down from the south peak made for some great butt sledding. Snowshoes went along for the ride. |
