| Comments: |
Another day of spring hiking conditions in February. Trails were mixed ice and rock making it hard on the microspikes. A couple sketchy spots that we decided to get off trail a bit to avoid the ice. Some snow up high in just below the summit but nothing that warranted snowshoes. Conditions could get a lot more dangerous if we get a little bit of snow on top of all the ice. |
