The 2 guys ahead of us broke trail. It was still uneven and we tried to pack it down. The snow was soft from the warm temperature. Someone behind us bare booted and created postholes for us on the way down. The trail had lots of snow. The steep parts were hard to get traction on the soft snow. The guys in front of us broke trail up towards the Sandwich Dome. We broke trail on the Jennings spur and there was some ice on the steep part. Our crampons on the snowshoes were enough to get us up to the top. There were some deeper parts from drifting snow. With Alohabuffy |
