5° at 10 am when I started. Lots of postholes heading up to the Imp face..not so bad the rest of the way up. carter Moriah was a frozen granular sidewalk up to both peaks. Smooth sailing back down to the imp trail. Headed south. From there down there were so many postholes it made it difficult to achieve any kind of hiking rhythm. Many ankle turns and twisted knees heading down. |
