| Comments: |
Bluebird day, views as good as it gets; especially the brilliant white Presies over the Bond Ridge. Sun and no wind (!) allowed easy hanging out at summit.
Trail was a very good snowshoe track all the way up, but was somewhat chewed up by spikers later; still best done with snowshoes.
[Several hikers coming from Flume noted fair snowshoe track, but many branches across trail.]
