Long day out. Started with gorgeous blue skies early morning. Boott Spur was great for views and a good long warm up. A little mud on the trail in the lower sections, but none that lasted long. Above tree line every trail was mostly dry and in good shape. A small amount of wet trail where snow is still melting or draining on Crawford Path down to Lake of the Clouds and the Crossover. Tuckerman Ravine trail is still closed with almost top to bottom snow in Left Gully. We spotted fresh ski tracks down the middle & a couple hiking out with skis. Lions Head was snow/ice free. Summer hiking conditions are here at last? |
