Weird weather, 18 degrees and raining when Zachary and I started. It didn't last long but it did come and go a few times. Bushwhack cut the corner and saved 3 contour lines of climbing hit KRT. Nice open woods. Windy at the bottom and top of the ledge. Cloudy but could see the nearest peaks.ledge was bare to the granite. Lower down not much snow but it had a crust and we thought we hit the jackpot. After about a mile snowbranged from 5 to 8 inches of sticky snow, heavy snowshoe syndrome! Zachary continued back on KRT to hit the nearby 52wView. I followed our tracks back. Returned to an ice covered car. |
