Dusting of new snow on Ravine Lodge Rd. Easy walking into the trail head. Wore light traction to about 1/4 mile from the summit. Snow was 4 inches deep and started to drift. Low visibility at treeline, very low at summit. We dusted off cairns and left a couple of poles along the way to make it back to treeline. Wasn't very windy until the summit where it was maybe 20 MPH. Very nice trip back to the car. Thanks to Lriz and Toby. |
