The auto road was a mix between bare pavement, ice and a little snow. More bare than not. Once in the woods, the short Rollins Trail was mostly ice, some significant. I bare booted almost all the way to the summit and put in spikes for the last .3 miles or so. Wore spikes back down to the top of the auto road. Summit was bare rock with a couple minor drifts. Nice views today with the building clouds before the big storm rolls in tomorrow. |
