Comments
Comments: Trail is packed and pretty easy to follow through the bushwhack, there are a few divergent paths and we took a couple wrong turns but sorted it out quickly. The current broken path includes a short bushwhack that cuts the turn onto Davis path by a couple hundred yards(estimate)as well. Drifting in the bushwhack made the trail just visible on our way down. Heavy drifting just below the summit made for very interesting crawl to the top. Snowshoes virtually all the way. Three of us only ones on the trail all day. About 8.5 hour total trip time.
