I cut a few blowdowns. Big patch right at summit still there. I did cut all branches so you can at least see where trail really goes. There is another big cluster between East Peak and the chimney. |

| Comments: |
The trail was hard packed all the way, I used micros on Greeley Pond Trail and full crampons on Osceola Trail. Crampons especially needed on downhill section above the chimney and on the steep section coming off the ridge. The weather was great and had blue sky. Did not see a single person all day. This was a true SOLO day. |
