| Comments: |
About 2 in. of new snow fell during this hike. The start of sargent path was bare. It soon transitioned to supportive snow and blue ice. The steep sections were difficult due to ice, especially on the way down. Crescent ridge was consistent supportive snow. The trail between the two peaks was hard to pick out. From a point just east of the peak, I made the short open bushwhack to the north peak. The recognized highpoint is on a mossy rocky bump. |
