 | Comments: |
What a beautiful day! Sunshine and no wind on the ridge; views were terrific. Trail was covered with firm snow except for a few wet/bare spots down low. Scattered icy patches and some exposed rocks, particularly on the Ridge, but microspikes were adequate. A few wind drifts on the ridge, but only a couple inches deep. Snowshoes went for a ride. |
