Comments
Comments: An easy hike, cut short. Our guest decided they weren't feeling well, even after a break. "The mountain will be there another day"
The folks at Highland Center recommended snowshoes, which worked for the 3 of us, due to a wide trail. Mircrospikes were used by most folks we saw, without trouble. It never warmed up enough to soften the trail.
