 | Comments: |
Trail to South was mostly clear of snow, except for upper reaches toward summit, but no traction needed. Some icy, wet areas on rock faces, so use caution in those spots. Trail to Middle in the col was still filled with deep snow (3-4') and you'll need snow shoes to avoid serious post holing. I did not attempt to get to North, because of the assumed deep snow in col. I'll wait a few weeks before I traverse the entire ridge. |
