Trail is well broken out all the way, but still not completely solid. Used micro spikes up and down with no problem. Snowshoes got a free ride, but I always carry them all winter. Took the bypass to the right of the Chimney on the way up, but missed the bypass on the way down. Yikes! No fun for this old man. Overall a good day. Lightly snowing when I left, might be completely different tomorrow. |
