| Comments: |
Nice sunny day with great views from the tower.
Bareboot until about 2700 ft (just after Lambert ridge) then switched to microspikes. Snow depth was never more than an inch, but most of the trail above 2700' was either icy or snow covered making it perfect for microspikes... until things warmed up in the afternoon and I had to clear the spikes from snow balling up every now and then. |
