Comments
Comments: There was about an inch of fresh dry powdery snow. Fast trails on this very cold day. Used spikes up the steep sections of Mt Osceola trail heading to East, would have been easier in crampons, but not icy. changed to crampons after summitting Osceloa, made the descent easier. Hand warmers were great on this cold day.
