| Comments: |
Mainly packed snow footway. Used snowshoes but could have used boots with traction. Some spotty icy areas where water had been collecting. Great views from the fire tower. Chilly wind at the summit.
Some tops of rocks and logs barely exposed in spots along trail.
Snow began just as I returned back to Hurricane Mtn Road.
New door on fire tower. |
