| Comments: |
It was a beautiful warm, clear day. The parking lot is snow covered and all the bog bridges were packed snow, could be slippery. I didn't need traction but there were a few spots where MS would have been nice but was not long enough to bother with but careful foot placement was necessary. Most of the steep sections had plenty of bare rock to climb on. Will this nice weather run into Dec? |
