 | Comments: |
Beautiful day, not so cold down lower, but got significantly colder up at about 3000'. Windy, on and off, up higher. Used microspikes to col between peaks, and crampons to Flume and the way back. Crampons were not absolutely necessary but resulted in less sliding in the packed snow. Left the snowshoes in the car in Feb! |
