Microspiked to the true summit of Whiteface. Snowshoed the Rollins Trail (was blown in / soft in a few spots). Wore snowhoes down Dicey Mills to where the grade moderates (~2800') and barebooted the rest of the way home.
Probably do not need snowshoes. I don't think Kate Sleeper was broken out, but I really only gave it a very quick glance. |
