Comments
Comments: Trail was surprisingly firm for how warm it was. It has seen a lot of snowshoe activity in the past few days. Everyone we saw today except for one person was in spikes or bareboots. Snowshoes would not be overkill by any means, and in fact I imagine some people would prefer them to use televators on the steeps.

I’m sure the impending rain will change all of this, however.
