 | Comments: |
3-4" new snow near top. Trails still completely snow covered from few inches to 2-4 feet. Probably 2-4 days of warm, sunny weather away from seeing much bare trail. Last couple times I bypassed a section leading up to the tower on my way down due to icy conditions and having only microspikes. Very windy today (wish I'd had my meter). E-mail for more recent conditions or possible signed trail closure. |
