| Comments: |
Very cold start. Hunters were out, but were off in a distance. We were able to bare boot until the 2 mile mark. Then it started with some ice. Should have put spikes on here. Definitely needed traction from the Lambert (AT) intersection to the top. Thick ice at the intersection. Slippery spots with about 2 inches of snow. Used traction until we were back down until the last mile out. |
