| Comments: |
Surprisingly little snow until a few tenths below the summit- microspikes more than sufficient. Open whacking in beautiful open glade for much of the route, with easy passage through limited thicker areas and over/around minor scattered blowdowns approaching the summit. Great views of the Presis and surrounding peaks from the summit and sub-peak lookouts and at multiple points on the ascent/descent through the trees. A gregarious crew composed of the Haiku Pirate, Brother Tom, Q-wave, and this old dub. |
