Was hoping for some undercast but it just didn't happen, instead it was in the clouds with mist all day but very warm temps for late November and easy conditions. Ice was present the last mile up to Bondcliff trail, old spikes worked perfect there, and in the trees heading up to Bond, and then lots of ice from there over to where I met my friend just above West Bond Spur. She had been wearing her old spikes up most of the Twinway over Zealand and West Bond. Definitely needed.
Quiet day on the Bonds, only a handful of hikers out and some afternoon backpackers heading in along the lower end of the Bondcliff Trail. Once we hit the wilderness boundary the Covid Cockroaches were scurrying about! |
