| Comments: |
Two weekends in a row that turned into attempts due to weather conditions (10/17/18) and time (10/23/18). Trail is essentially broken all the way to the base of slide peak. Decided to turn around the second time due to depth of snow and the sun was setting. Both of us were not looking to make the trek of Glen Boulder Trail in the dark. |
