| Comments: |
It was a perfect day above treeline with a bit of wind. The snow on Ammo is pretty much gone aside from a couple small patches at lower elevations and a section of unavoidable monorail at about 4800’. It is only about 500 feet long and spikes are not needed. It wasn’t too busy from Lakes of the Clouds until the end except for the summit of Washington. Jewell has no snow at all and all snow above treeline was avoidable/off trail.
