 | Comments: |
6-8 inches down low. Consistent 1 foot depth higher up with a few 2 foot drifts in places. Could have used snowshoes car to car, wish I had brought mine. Guess I’m not in that full winter mindset yet. Put on spikes for the steeps below summit as there was substantial ice hiding under all the snow. Gorgeous day. A true winter wonderland in October! |
