| Comments: |
We were surprised to find a bit of snow at the trailhead and microspikes were very helpful starting about halfway up the trail where ice was forming. There were spots of ice over water- easy to break through and get boots wet, and slippery black ice on rock. Summit wind was blowing and very cold. Below freezing conditions. Light snow up to summit. |
