 | Comments: |
Mostly a light coating of snow over ice. Some bare ice but avaoidable. Ridge was a mix of bare rock, snow and ice. Micro spikes were the tool of choice today. Winds were mostly calm. Mountain Forecast was spot on. MWOB was probably over estimating winds. What a great day in the Northern Presis! |
