 | Comments: |
Brady and I had a fun hike. Beautiful views at the viewpoint near the summit.
Significant soft snow a couple hundred yards from the summit. I post holed once up to my hip!
There is a short but sketchy steep and icy spot in the same area. You may want to have spikes to get through that patch. |
