Snowshoes all day, though spikes would work on 19MB. The loop had previously been broken by someone wearing snowshoes (thank you!), so we were able to do minimal breaking, except up on the ridge where the wind had done some nifty drifting. Definitely bring snowshoes for the foreseeable future for these. Not enough traffic yet to pack down the ridge in any meaningful way. |
