| Comments: |
The snowmobile trail and the col had some standing/running water, otherwise the path was generally dry. Some slippery leaves leading up to the subpeak; on the descent, we bushwhacked a little bit to the west to cut off the grade a bit. Nice views of Stinson Lake as the skies started to clear. |
