| Comments: |
Davis Path up to Mt Crawford in good shape. The rock slabs were not that slippery. Davis from Mt Crawford to Stairs col is very wet with patchy snow. Davis from Stairs col to Stairs spur had plentiful snow sections, but cold conditions kept snow firm. Lots of blowdowns in this area. Stairs spur trail icy in spots. Mt Parker Trail up to Resolution was in good shape with some ice on the rock slabs. We bare-booted everything with care. A dusting of fresh snow coated most of the trails above 2500ft. |
