Good 360 views from the fire tower - it's open.
Trail started with no snow. At 1400-1500 ft there started to be some ice/snow on the trail. At 2000 ft the trail transitioned to enough ice/snow to need spikes. The trail from here up was 80% ice with a significant amount of the smooth used to be a puddle type of ice sections. Not my favorite terrain but the view made up for it! |
