We were on trail at 8am and off trail by 11am. The trail was well packed out and firm enough this morning to hold our weight. We brought snowshoes but never needed them...we 'spiked up and down without damaging the path. That being said, anyone who hikes this route this afternoon will probably need to wear the 'shoes, as the day is getting warmer and the trail will soften.
As we ascended, we saw two kind fellows on the way down who had camped near the summit. They said they had great views last night...warm temps and clear skies. Also saw a nice couple getting ready to head up as we were unpacking at our car, after our hike. Other than those two pairs, we had the mountain to ourselves.
Gorgeous views up top! Will have a trip report with photos and videos on our blog tomorrow. |
