 | Comments: |
The road is hard blue ice. Lower trail was very nice with supportive snow, but no evidence of recent travel. Higher up was mainly supportive with some powder and punchy spots. The cone of North Percy had sections of hard blue ice, which I would not have attempted without full crampons. |
