| Comments: |
A little boney down low to the first major river crossing. Above there its pretty much smooth sailing the entire way with the trail mostly well packed crusty/crunchy hard snow with the occasional divots from this weekends slushfest and semi-frequent blue/yellow ice patches. Everything was fine with hillsound spikes, didn't bother carrying any other traction devices. Bald peak spur is broken out but i didn't feel like taking the effort and time to visit |
