| Comments: |
Conditions on the trail vary considerably; there is lots of mud and water on the lower sections. Many sections have soft snow and postholes. I would still recommend snowshoes, though it is hard to choose when to use them. I used snowshoes for the entire bushwhack from the col to the West Peak. The woods were mainly open and the highpoint is recognized at the far west end. |
