 | Comments: |
Headed up Sugar Farms, climbed the fire tower at the summit and headed back down via Tower Trail. Used microspikes for about 90% of the climb. The last half mile to the summit and the actual summit don’t currently have any snow. All other sections of the trail were a mix of monorail ice, mud and water. |
