Broke out Cascade Link Trail. Despite the ranger saying just spikes would be fine, I wish I had brought my snowshoes with me to lay down a better track. Spent pretty much the entire day walking through unpacked powder. Trail still needs to be consolidated. It could use a couple good snowshoe tracks.
No summit today, as the wind was too much once out of the trees on Pumpelly. |
