 | Comments: |
A bluebird day with only the hint of a breeze on the summits. Wore snowshoes the entire day which worked quite well with the various snow types. The televators helped with the climbing. The trails to Mt. Liberty were well packed. A trail section near the final climb of Mt. Flume was only partially packed out. The day began in winter and turned into summer for the afternoon - big temperature range. |
