| Comments: |
The trail was packed but overnight snow left 1-2" at lower elevations with 4-5" and small drifts up higher....the cairns are ice/snow encrusted and blend in easily with the white scenery..no view at the summit today...didn't see anyone today until the last mile walk out on Valley Way..he said he had attempted to go to Adams but quit around tree line (weather, time)..not sure of his route but he did say he was breaking trail |
