Phenomenal day to be out!! Sun was in and out all day, warmer temps, and strangely uncrowded on Crawford. Davis Path is packed and easy to follow. A few very brief sections where it got a little choppy/postholed and others where the snow got slick on the steep sections in the sun but all doable in basic winter gear. I wore micros until the spur trail where I switched to snowshoes and was happy with the results. Passed two folks in crampons, another two in snowshoes. Spring must be on its way! |
