Beautiful day for the Moats. I was able to barefoot to the knob just before summiting North Moat at which point I used micros temporarily. They went back on descending North Moat until approx 1400 ft as the trail is covered with a thin layer of frozen ice flow.There are spotty patches of ice and solid monorail through out the whole trail mixed with bare rock. I met five hikers on the trail social distancing easily maintained |
