Started in the morning with an empty lot and mid teens. On the accent, trail conditions are all over the place but for the most part we had a few inches of powder on top of ice. Sweet. Hillsounds were fine with minimal slipping. Bonestone had on CRAPtoolahs and may as well have been wearing CROCS. Open ledges are a bit slick and top section are as slick but you can pull yourself up/down with the small pines. Saw a few people on the trail but not sure any made it to the summit which had amazing views but was very cold and windy. (got a little wind burn on my face) Most snow was gone on the decent which made the ice easier to see and still slip on. Bunch of people at Diana's in the afternoon. |
