Not much changed since the last report. Mostly dry ground and avoidable ice until the trail branches away from the brook. Ice is predominate from 3,300ft. most tossed on spikes here and kept them on until the return around the same spot. Frozen granular approaching tree line to with ice to the summit, enough where you could avoid the exposed rock with spikes on.
Excellent weather on my favorite mountain. Cold, crisp, light winds with views for over 100 miles. What an awesome day to share in a Grid finish with Kathy! And with so many great people!
