| Comments: |
I opted for snowshoes at 2900 feet as I knew the exposed ledges were past me. Snowshoes did help with avoiding some of the postholing but definitely not all. Plenty of thigh to waist deep postholes and I am six foot two. Conditions are changing quickly but the next several days are going to be wet from all the melt! |
