Tough day to be solo with 12+ inches of soft powder. Trail beyond the hut was unbroken. I slowly broke trail up to the ridge until the junction with the Kinsman trail on the slim hope someone came up the west side. No luck! I knew I wasn't going to make it all the way to South so I was about to turn around when someone else showed up. Together we broke the rest of the way to North. There were a few other people on the way down who went to the top of the ridge at least, so there's been at least six sets of shoes to the ridge. It's unlikely anyone has been to South peak though. I plan to head back up tomorrow to finish the job good and proper! |
