 | Comments: |
Trail was pretty dry (with a few easily navigated mud pits) up to about 2500’. After that it is a melting, slushy mess. never needed spikes as everything was soft-no real ice anywhere. It was dropping major snow bombs from the conifers up high. Felt like we were getting solidly rained on the entire upper mountain. the steep ledges just below the summit were totally dry and easily navigated by an old dog, a four-year old, and a man carrying a baby. Saw three other humans enjoying the fine day. |
