Comments
Comments: Glen Boulder showed no sign of very recent travel, but had a good base. Davis path showed no sign of recent travel. Snow was mainly supportive except for drifts and the odd soft spot. Snowshoes were the only way to go for the entire hike.

From just above slide peak, I bushwhacked across the slope to meet Davis Path. This shortcut was great today on very high and supportive snow, but would not make sense in other conditions. Higher up, my tracks are likely blown in.
