Trail turned very icy somewhere between 4000 and 4500, microspikes were useful. Good views from the ridge. An inch or so of snow around 5000. Saw some bozo throw a snowball off the top of Lincoln towards I-93… I know it couldn’t have gone far enough to hit anyone or anything or start any kind of slide, but it just CAN’T be a good idea to be hurling things off mountaintops…(!) |
