| Comments: |
Almost everyone out today had snowshoes, which were perfect for trail conditions. There are still a few rocks sticking out of the snow, easily stepped around. A few people were in microspikes which put small holes in the trail. Snow was nicely compacted. Few people went to see the views near the summit (veer to the right just before the trail turns left and heads into the summit.) In between the passing clouds, views were splendid. |
