 | Comments: |
Great hike in the snow storm. 3-4 inches of accumulation near top, less near bottom on way down. Tower windows covered with rime, and tower vibrating a little in wind. Caution while descedning in MICROspikes; slipped on hidden water ice a couple times. Near bottom MICROspikes balled up with nearly each step, as wet snow stuck to them, leaving pine needle footprints. Back down at 10:30 a.m. |
