 | Comments: |
Skiing was very difficult: breakable crust over several feet of soft powder so we took turns breaking trail. Skins were helpful on the uphill sections. Due to the difficulty breaking trail we only got to within 0.1 mile of the upper FMPT/Gleason Trail junction. I wish there were more ski tour trip reports out there. |
