Comments
Comments: Fine day of real winter ambiance with powder snow falling gently all morning--accum 2-4" over previous melt/refreeze ice on trail; fresh snow on conifers provided white-on-white winter beauty.


Summit vis <110ft; some fresh snow over ice--traction helpful most of the way, but not necessary.


Kestrel data: T= 9F W=10mph avg / gusts to 22mph WC= -4F avg / min -13F.


So pleased to be there with Evan while he's home.
