 | Comments: |
There is still a significant anount of snow/blue ice on the trials at the lower levels of Champney and on the switch backs. The short side trail to the falls was all snow and ice. From the start of Campney to the tree line we used spikes. Granit face to the summit was clear of snow/ice. There are sections on Champney with no snow near the falls. Stongly advice taking spikes. The falls are in full flow. |
