Comments
Comments: The trail was bumpy but firmly packed throughout. Light traction was ideal.

Special thanks to Snowflea for her timely report last night, typically thorough, that enabled us to change trail plans and cruise up today!

Wonderful hike with Chris. Great views, reasonable temperature/wind. Trip ends out being a little over 9 miles RT from the temp lot.
