Super gorgeous day! My early morning start saw solid packed snow underfoot, 'spiked to Tom and back down the spur to Willey Range Trail. From that junction, snowshoes were the way to go to beat the one 'spiked step forward, half step slide back energy wasting/trail shredding dance move as the day warmed. Saw lots of deeeeep tibia-splitting postholes. Fantastic views at each peak! Wore snowshoes to within a mile of 302 because of snow softening. |
