 | Comments: |
Weather forecast was somewhat wrong today, ended up being cloudy and rainy for the majority of the day with occasional views around. Snow was slushy and drifted in places, rocks were slippery and very treacherous. We didn’t use microspikes at all but there were some spots where it might make sense to use them. |
