We brought our snowshoes just in case we needed them at the higher elevation, but we never used them. 2 of us wore stabilicers and 1 cramp-ons. Snow was minimal, surprisingly. It did get icy closer to the summit but we still did managed in our stabilicers. There were trees to grab onto to help you get up and down on the ice sections. I was really surprised how little snow there was on the trail considering all the snow we got in December. |
