 | Comments: |
Nicely packed snow on the trail from bottom to summit. Reached the summit in an hour and 45 minutes. Snowshoes are a must in order to keep the trail free from postholes. The only technical spot was about 15 feet from the summit. Go slowly on that part. Temperature was close to -10 degrees on top, so make sure to bring a hard shell layer. Otherwise, it was a great hike with 3 completely clear views throughout the hike and on the summit. |
