Comments
Comments: Hodgepodge of conditions that could be doable barebooting, spiking, snowshoeing, or nordic skiing. Not ideal conditions for any, but not a barrier either.

Initial unplowed road had two deepish troughs from a vehicle. Beyond the gate, it was more like dust on crust with some brief ankle-turning frozen divets from barebooters in warmer weather. Foot path was fairly smooth sailing. A little bit of ice on the ledge.

Brisk morning with temperatures in the teens and some wind, but much more mild than the weekend.
