| Comments: |
Double-wide snowshoe track up to the cutoff, and still fairly wide above. Several tracks in all directions up to Clinton summit. Crawford Path down into the col is fairly easy to follow, a few leaners to crawl under. Followed tracks to a line of scrub less than a half mile to Ike, and couldn't find a way through. No tracks going through and couldn't find a good line of weakness. Wore snowshoes all day but could be bare-booted, solid base, but soft surface. Sunny and warm with only an occasional slight breeze. |
