Stellar day on the mountains today!! Trails werefrozen solid and spikes and hillsounds were used .Descending South Hancock was a bit slick in some spots . The frozen post holes of snowshoes and boots came in handy for foot steps down and up the steep areas . Still a ton of snow at elevation but decreasing everyday.I give today a 10 on conditions weather and company!! Hike on |
