 | Comments: |
A beautiful track all the way to the summit. Bare boots or micros would be fine to the Jennings spur. From there the track is a bit softer with some drifting so snowshoes would be the best bet. Wore shoes car to car only to reduce the need to have to fiddle with gear on this sun-zero day. Drakes was a good choice as we were able to stay sheltered from the wind. |
