	Comments:	Quick hike up Mount Major. Some ice on the upper ledges of the Mount Major Trail to the summit but could be avoided so carried light traction was not needed. Some running water on the upper portion of the Boulder Trail with some mud lower down. Windy cool day with some snow showers. Only saw a few other hikers and had the summit to ourselves which was unusual. Thanks to Hannah and Haven for accompanying us.
