| Comments: |
Black pond bushwack is quite muddy at the start so we end up on our own bushwack most of the way out, easier to follow-up on the way back. Took the slide up and the brutus bushwack down. Hard to follow the brutus bushwack at times but was able to get it back. Didn't put spikes on at the top, but probably should've for the way back down. The snow was slick. Otherwise, beautiful day for hike |
