Comments
Comments: The trail was drier than I expected and the few short sections of ice or snow, mostly on the Moriah-Carter trail, were easy to either bypass or use branches or little trees to navigate. Carried snowshoes but there is no need for them. I did not use my microspikes as each section was so short and with care could easily manage them; the bare ledges in between the icy sections are much longer and would be a pain to cross with spikes.
