| Comments: |
Gloomy start to clearing skies made for a decent day on trail. Muddy and icy down low with a dusting of snow. Ice becomes abundant furthur in as well as more snow especially on the ridge. Conditions require spikes but make sure you bring rock spikes if you have them. I broke a chain link on the way down due to lots of rocks on trail. Snow depths are minimal so snowshoes can stay at home for now. |
