 | Comments: |
Temps in the high 30s at 7am in Lincoln but the trail was in a great shape. A couple inches of fresh snow from Saturday night along the whole trail. A few drifts between peaks but very minor. Handful of people out on Sunday to packed down the fresh snow by the end. Hit a couple small ice patches going up to South Hancock but much less icy than I was anticipating. Conditions were overall great and microspikes were good from start to finish. |
