Comments
Comments: First half mile or so was icy. Some of the ledges were icy. There was about two inches of powder at start making the ice especially slick. By the time I reached the summit there was about three or four inches of powder. Wind about thirty mph had whipped up some good sized drifts near summit. Passed a couple in microspikes heading up. Fun to be out in the snow!!
