 | Comments: |
Nice "winter" outing with the OTHH. Slight dusting of snow down low, mixed with frozen leaves and dirt. A very light coating of snow up high, notably on ledges. Bare-booted up to ledges, then some of us donned microspikes. There eventually were some broad areas of ice on the rock slabs where runoff and meltwater has frozen with the more seasonable temperatures, making light traction an absolute must. |
