Great hike up to Cannon. The trail was well packed with some unconsolidated powder until treeline.. At upper levels above treeline towards the summit and over the ridge there is significant drifting with drifts of at least 4ft in places. The trail was difficult to follow at times but I got through it.I did this hike in snowshoes and highly recommend them at least on upper levels. Beautiful day
