 | Comments: |
A quick hike of Mt Hale brought a mixed bag of weather from blue skies with warm sun,sporadic heavy rain showers and slee in no particular order. I was able to bareboot to the last crossing then micros until returning to this point. Remaining snowpack on trail ranges from an inch or two of icy monorail to two feet which was fairly supportive. Snowshoes along for the hike.
