Great hiking day! No snow on the trail almost up to Mt Surprise, but it started to snow around 9:30. Very light, piled up almost to 4 inches by the time I came back down from Moriah. No postholing, trail icy, but very manageable with Hillsounds Trail Crampons, or probably even Microspikes. Might need snowshoes, if the snow continues. |
