Comments
Comments: A dusting of new snow early this morning.

Only one on the trai; had the whole place to myself.

Bare-booted to the summit of North Hancock, microspikes from there over to South Hancock and down to the North/South junction on the Hancock Loop Trail. Still a lot of snow between the summits. As per earlier report, the Hancock Loop Trail branch up North Hancock is mostly free of snow until nearing the summit; the branch up South Hancock has significant snow and ice still, all the way down to the junction.
