Comments
Comments: Barebooted for a while, then put on snowshoes. There was a good existing snowshoe track this morning, but that may be divoted a bit by now due to some hikers who were not wearing snowshoes. There are a couple of different tracks between the cabin and the summit, but that should not be a problem for an attentive hiker.
