Comments
Comments: Trail started with patches of ice under the leaves, then at higher elevation there was a mixture of snow and ice. Microspikes were needed and helpful. Light snow flurries throughout the day. Planned on getting Sandwich peak as well, but changed plans due to lack of views and limited daylight hours left.
