| Comments: |
Snow depth made this hike much easier than it usually can be in November, as there was enough snow to kick steps up the steep granite slabs; there was very little exposed ice. Wore microspikes from the parking lot. Two groups of 8, plus several individuals seen on trail, so trail is easy to follow now. Snow flurries throughout the hike, so this should be a non-icy hike in the days ahead, with an easy to follow trail of footprints. |
