| Comments: |
Great bluebird day. Spikes from start to finish, snowshoes not needed. As others have said, many postholes, especially between North & South peaks. You really can not sled down South at this time - rocks and lots of ice chunks from the post-holing. Everyone went up North and down south today. Several out there, including some groups. |
