| Comments: |
Two days have made a significant difference in conditions. Melting fast, which means lots of running water over ice. Top was very windy and damp. Rocks were wet and falls not uncommon. Traction is still a must have. Many people seen without equipment for the conditions. Spring hitting fast with variable conditions depending on the trail. Be prepared for ice, running water, slush and mud. |
