Comments
Comments: Bareboot to start, put on old microspikes a couple of miles in. Intermittent ice. Significant ice just after intersection with Watson path, used Hillsounds up to treeline. Crampons would be helpful as well. At treeline used old micros up and down Adams. Going up Madison was barebootable except for very beginning. Used Hillsounds for the way down. Very light winds. Didn't see anyone all day.
