 | Comments: |
Trail started as frozen dirt and quickly became sheer ice for about the 1st mile. It was pretty slick in areas even with microspikes. More substantial traction would be better until we get more snow. For the 2nd mile, there was more snow pack which made it easier. From the view point up to the summit, trail was well packed. Used a lot of caution on the descent. |
