Comments
Comments: Trail was free of snow at start and granular packed snow coverage increased as elevation was gained. Significant post holing in areas between Starr King and Waumbek Summit, most of which were avoidable. Stability of snow coverage deteriorated significantly on the descent due to warming temperatures.
