| Comments: |
Decided that microspikes would be sufficient, and they were for the most part. Bullwinkle had decended from the upper trail junction leaving 3 foot deep post holes for over a mile. Someone should make him get snowshoes. Beautiful views and good temperatures today. A chilly breeze on the knob cut short our time there.
