| Comments: |
We were fortunate enough to have a broken trail to about a 1/4 mile from East peak. From there we broke trail across the ridge to the main peak. The drifts were pretty deep and constant about midthigh deep. We saw 11 people on our way out 2 of which were bare booting and destroying a nicely packed trail. |
