Ice and snow drifts. wet trail most of the way up, 1/2 way down. Ledges slick where wet. Went counter-clockwise as usual. Nice day for a quick hike. Saw only a few others. Sad to see birch at 1st ledges a casualty from this past winter. Now a total loss. Dragging a bit today, took 2.5 hours to do the loop.
Just kidding about the snow and ice. Wishful thinking. :) |
