Comments
Comments: Great hike under cloudy and windy conditions on summit. AT broken out only a little beyond ledges and Ranger trail brook out whole way. Deep powder snow on summit and requires snowshoes even though we barebooted up with microspikes. Met a group of three spending the night at Hexacuba shelter.
