| Comments: |
From the trailhead, we walked up the street and hiked in via a logging road, avoiding a water crossing. The entire trail was packed/loose snow with some ice. We used spikes for the hike, putting them on just prior to a minor, icy water crossing, and leaving them on for the rest of the day; we brought snowshoes but they were unnecessary. It was icy just below the summit of Moriah, and we hiked around it, using trees for support. |
