I got up at 3am so I could start at 7:15am to take advantage of frozen conditions. Able to use microspikes (Hillsounds) all day. The depth of snow in various exposed places along Carter-Moriah Trail was amazing. I would guess 5 to 7 feet. As the snow gets soft, bare boot post holes will be huge. The last section before Carter Dome is very deep.
The bottom section of Imp Trail before Dodge Cut-off was mush in afternoon. Had a great time getting some more 4's over 75. LOL |
