 | Comments: |
There is no snow going up the Saddleback Ski trail all the way to Saddleback.
There is snow in patches 1-4' deep in the saddle between Saddleback and The Horn.
Some of the snow was solid enough to walk on top, but in other spots there was post holing.
The 1.6 mile AT between Saddleback and The Horn is mostly exposed ridge and has magnificent 360 views. |
