Comments
Comments: Snow is melting fast, no snow for most of the first mile, then inch or two of slush for most of the rest of the way with some snow spots, but mostly just mush. Still a few inches of snow off in the woods up higher but it probably will be all melted by the end of the upcoming weekend.

Didn't use light traction but most will probably feel more comfortable wearing them on the descent, so pack them just in case.
