 | Comments: |
We did an out and back of both summits primarily using the Ski Trail and Old Trail. We saw only a few other hikers and skiers when starting out and otherwise had both mountains to ourselves. We wore snowshoes the entire way and recommend the same to preserve the integrity of the ski trail. Also, bring a sled. There is great sledding on the steep parts on the descent. |
