| Comments: |
Lower part of the trail was intermittent bare and packed powder. 2-3 inches of loose and sometimes sticky snow on top of packed powder higher up. As it got warmer our microspikes and poles would clog up with sticky snow. Would have been a great day for a snowball fight !! Beautiful clear skies today with views of all the ranges. |
