| Comments: |
Bony low, ledges and other areas that often can be wicked icy and challenging in low snow winter conditions were great with only a few minor patches of blue ice. Postholes up above 3000' are tough and slowed me down a bit, wind drifting on the lat 0.1 miles below the summit spur hid the postholes, be careful here. If we actually get snow this weekend maybe snowshoes could be useful somewhere but until then they get to stay in the car |
