Donned Hillsounds at around 3,500 feet. They are not particularly sharp at this point and I had no trouble getting up South Hancock.
Lots of interesting monorail both stable and unstable. Plus dry ground. Plus some pretty impressive post holes!
I could have made it down North Hancock without traction but kept anticipating more ice which never really materialized on that section.
Removed traction at about the same spot.
Trailing arbutus flowering! |
