Unseasonable warm day made for a great day on the trail! I wore microspikes the whole way, and carried snowshoes in case. The slushy snow probably would have been easer to hike in if I had put on the snowshoes, but I was mostly just lazy and didn't want to have to switch when I hit more ice. Summit was in the clouds, but awesome views up CM trail and over Surprise. |
