| Comments: |
trails were packed highways and the loop up and down North/South has been butt slid heavily but no ice anywhere. Barebooted to bottom of North then put on snowshoes with televators. Spikes would be okay for the loop but I preferred snowshoes and think they would make it much easier. No drifting on the ridge. Great trail conditions right now for the Hancocks |
