 | Comments: |
trails were packed frozen crust with irregular surface due to bareboots on previous warm days. done easily with bb or microspikes with current frozen status. even crust to sides of trails holds 175.
bright, sunny day-excellent views, although lack of snow cover below3500' dulls the vista. nevertheless, always a fine summit for the 15 or so people we saw.
and, great to get one in with Evan.
Kestrel data: T=0F W=16mph WC= -28F 'invigorating'! |
