Comments
Comments: Beautiful weather, great visibility and sensational views. Snow covered Prezzies and trees were amazing. First three miles nicely broken in and we easily did it with microspikes. The last two miles to the summit about 1 to 2 inches of loose snow and switched to snowshoes. Saw no humans on Stony Brook all day - only some very nice people and dogs on summit.
