 | Comments: |
All trails were in very good shape and packed well. Stopping at Lonesome Lake hut and Lily had just baked fresh cookies, they were delicious!! The wind was howling and it was about 5 degrees on the mountain today. Snowshoes were the best tools. I tried microspikes for a mile but would sink into the soft snow which became annoying. |
