| Comments: |
Trail was mostly snowy with periodic sections of exposed rock and ice. Steep and rocky sections were difficult to navigate because they were so slippery. There were occasional sections of running water. Summit was extremely windy. All trails are now packed down. Light traction is advised, crampons or snowshoes would have been of no use. |
