 | Comments: |
I wanted to get another hike in before the next round of funky weather. Snow was sticky in places, with some ice underneath. But mostly fine. Just a couple of tricky spots coming over the summit (ice), but not enough to break out the sharper spikes. Lots of people out! I suspect things might be very icy after the rain/ deep freeze [wearing snowshoes during the thaw will help to protect the trail!]. Trail is steeper than I remembered, but that can happen with the passage of many years. |
