Comments
Comments: Bluebird day in AM with light breezes. Trails mostly well packed and navigable with minor drifts in lower elevations. Carter-Moriah Ridge is 'drifty' just about everywhere but not too deep to be of concern. Drifts from Zeta Pass to Carter Dome were pretty deep though and some extra time was required to climb to the Dome. A fabulous day with killer views to the Northern Presi's.
