| Comments: |
Lots of melting over the past few days. Barely any natural snow left below about 3,000 feet. There are three patches of manmade snow prior to the viewpoint entrance on Mt. Tecumseh Trail (rest of that ski trail approach is damp and snow free). A few inches of spring snow remaining in upper elevations. Areas of slush ice that were slippery enough to warrant Microspikes. Snowshoes will not be necessary on this peak until the next snow storm. Most of the snow may disappear before the end of the week at this pace. |
