Warmer day than expected for a beautiful climb up Liberty. Saw about a dozen people, all having a good time in the White Mountains. Dusting of snow at the beginning, without much accumulation even to the summit, but it's slippery in places due to ice. Bare-booted up to around 2500ft, where the microspikes came on. Snowshoes went for a ride today. It got cold and windy at the top, but the reward was that it cleared while I was there, so spectacular views over towards the Bonds and South Twin, and down to Cannon Mountain and the notch. |
