 | Comments: |
Trail alternated from extended dry sections, significant muddy sections, and areas of pooled or running water. Spent maybe half an hour on the summit - during that time, ice started to set up in the upper elevations. It may be wise to carry Microspikes due to the amount of water on the trail that could set up as ice overnight. |
