Well I was excited to hear the gates were open ! I barebooted all the way to the summit. It was bare on top. I put my spikes on at 4600’ and took them off at 3500’. This is not where the snow stops but it does go back and forth a lot. I started early thankfully as the warm day already started to soften the snow up for me to look like a drunken sailor. Saw 10 people and 2 dogs. Barely any wind on top. Great trip! |
