| Comments: |
Excellent hike of Mt Osceloa with extremely mild temperatures for December 1st. Winter gear went unused today but glad to carry just the same. There were icy stretches on trail that were for the most part were avoidable starting at approximately 3600 feet. When temperatures drop the trail will be quite icy without a doubt. I met no others on today's hike and was very grateful the road was still open.
