| Comments: |
An early sunrise hike up Air Line to Adams then over to Madison and down Valley Way. Did not need spikes at all on Air Line. There is about 0.2 miles of snow just before tree line everything else is dry. Gulfside had just a bit of snow in the trees before the hut. Madison was dry except a short section in the trees at the hut. I used spikes on Valley Way down to the Upper Bruin junction then barebooted the rest.
