| Comments: |
Despite the forecast, we received mostly snow from the Tuesday and Wednesday storms. There was some sleet mixed in, so there are layers of unpacked snow. Seems like we netted close to a foot, though the ridge had multiple feet deep drifts. With only my tracks before dawn, the trail is not at all packed out.
Bottom-feeding barebooters will need to put on their big boy pants and get snowshoes if they plan to earn some winter peaks up north this weekend. |
