 | Comments: |
Crawford Path is packed down perfectly up to summit of Pierce. Got a little softer going towards Eisenhower with blown in drifts. Saw a mix of spikes and snowshoes between the peaks, either would work. Webster Cliff past Eisenhower and all of Edmand's Path were unbroken with deep drifts. Snowshoes were a must with slow going through the higher elevations when you're walking across the slope and sliding downhill. Few inches of snow on unplowed Mt Clinton Rd back to the car. |
