It was about 45F at 6 am, great morning to take a local hike before the rain moves in. The trails are very icy in part and summits are mostly on bare rock. The southern slopes are almost snowless, leaving a low ice monorail in place. The views were great and I saw very few people, only some nice guys and ice climbers in Echo Lake State Park surroundings.
