 | Comments: |
Hi-Cannon had a dusting of powder on top of a firm mostly snowy base. Some ice lurked beneath the powder in a few sections. Ladder was easy to navigate both up and down, snow and ice-covered. Some postholes, mainly when we hit the KRT jct. Hillsounds worked fine for all 3 of us all day. A blustery and cold morning, fun to duck into the warming hut near the summit to have a brief respite from the biting winds. Fun hike with Joyce and Al. |
