| Comments: |
Moderate muddy spots and puddles. Some of the rocky sections between the woods and the open slabs high on both peaks were quite wet and took care to navigate. Some ice spots were present as well, spikes will be required soon depending on weather. Also worth noting that the Clark trail down from the summit has blazes on the open slabs but no cairns, so it would be difficult to follow in ice/snow conditions. |
