 | Comments: |
Everything is damp. We got light rain showers while ascending, then got light snow at the summit. We weren't really in the clouds much, just surrounded by them. We did manage to find a couple neat views. The descent was a little tedious given the extensive wet rock slabs. Expect tomorrow to be black ice hell... |
