| Comments: |
went up blueberry ledge using spikes. trail well packed, but snow on south facing ledges was getting soft, and spikes were slipping. Used spikes across ridgeline all the way to walden trail, minor drifting seen on ridge. switched to snow shoes going up walden, and then stayed on the rest of day. snow getting soft in the afternoon, postholes evident. |
