Comments
Comments: Below 2500' is very minimal patches of ice in shady spots, above 2500' there is lots of patchy ice on all trails, enough bare rock that I left the spikes off all day and chose to rock hop and focused on good, accurate footwork, only had to duck into the woods for a couple short stretches. Winds had a little bite on the summit and sunset was amazing
