Nice hike up to Piper and Whiteface this morning, the morning sun felt warm at the top. The trails are fine, aside from a few patches of snow and ice here and there. You don't really need microspikes as you'll likely just be taking them on and off a lot. By the end of the hike, there was a LOT of people coming up the trail. |
