Lots of snow and well below freezing temps today on Moriah! Not as windy as we thought on the summit. Snow was mostly packed in, and was a lovely hard packed path in the woods all day. Great grip. A couple ice floes but they are avoidable. Slabs are fine and covered in crunch snow. No falls/bum touches :) Didn’t see a need for snowshoes yet as there is only a couple inches on the ground.
