 | Comments: |
There was about 3 inches of fresh snow but microspikes did the job. Snowshoes would have been ideal but trail was packed down on the descent from all the foot traffic. There are sections of deeper snow drifts near the summit, about a foot deep. Overall a great day and not as windy as anticipated. |
