 | Comments: |
Road had a few inches of snow but underneath it was glare ice. Some wore snowshoes and some wore microspikes. Still not a lot of snow down low but it was snowshoable. New section of trail avoids the two lower water crossings. Snow depths much deeper as we got higher. Garfiled Ridge Trail had been broken out as well as Frost Trail up to the summit. Great conditions for snowshoing. |
