| Comments: |
Around 3000', we started to encounter a little fresh snow. As we went higher, the snow depth slowly increased. When we got to the flat traverse, there was 4-6" of snow, which had mostly been packed down by previous hikers. When we hit the junction, we were mostly above tree line, and the wind picked up a little bit. Temperature was a balmy 32 degrees for this time of year. We wore Micro Spikes the entire day. |
