Great day out there! The trail is a highway and spikes were more than sufficient. Toward the end of the day there was enough melt that I was sliding a bit in my spikes, but not postholing yet. Went up north with no issues...my buddy forgot his spikes and managed to get up. Slid/walked/fell down south. Weather couldn't have been better. |
