 | Comments: |
Warm temps and mostly sunny conditions made for a comfortable traverse, though too windy on the ridge to stay for long. I used crampons today as did most others though spikes would probably be adequate. Snow shoes are unnecessary as snow depths are low. Warm sunshine and low wind made for a nice lunch break at the hut. |
