 | Comments: |
Road walked the mile from the pass to the new AT/LT crossing. Snow started around 3000 feet, monorail in patches above 3400 feet (just before Jungle Jct.) Lots of snow and mud from there to Pico Camp and a little below. Not worth bringing flotation and traction, though; just bring boots (not trail runners) if you don't want muddy, wet feet. |
