Comments
Comments: All trails well packed down after the weekend and pretty solid packed powder/ice with minimal postholes. Spellman was lightly travelled with some deep drifts over ice. Open ridge Pumpelley to the summit had ice covered rock with some minor drifts.Had snowshoes and crampons but didn't use either. Microspikes were fine the whole way. Beautiful clear skies with almost no wind.
