| Comments: |
Once again the snow is pretty stable. Put spikes on on bridal where it rises steeply and took them off ast I went up to lafayette but still lots of snow and ice. Put them back on dropping back into the snow to Liberty. Lots of people on haystack lots of people on Liberty. Snow remains solid but will rot and break up soon. Wore spikes over to flume down halfway on liberty springs trail. |
