Temp was -3F at 8:30 at the trailhead. Trail was well packed down the whole way. Brought snowshoes but didn't need them. Put on spikes about a 1/2 mile in. Probably could have barebooted the whole way if I wanted to, but the traction was helpful in a couple spots. Nice crisp day with clear views. |
