| Comments: |
some mud and washed out places down low. the main crossing was low with a couple of different routes folks had taken. trail a hard packed sidewalk from there with some icy spots. sharp microspikes were perfect though some might fell better on descent with mini crampons. ramp to the summit filled in nicely. far reaching views today, wind in the 30's temps in the teens made for a short summit visit though. great day to be out |
