| Comments: |
Jewell was well packed. In response to reports of 6" of new snow on Washington, we took the snowshoes. Carried them all day. A few drifts in places, pretty minor. Hillsounds worked well today and helped in icy areas. Lots of rocks poking through on Gulfside and the top of Jewell. Not many folks up there today despite light winds. |
