A beautiful day up on the ridge. I used snowshoes from the hut up to Lafayette where the trail wasn't broken and there were significant drifts but otherwise there wasn't enough snow for them to make any sense. Rock spikes on for basically the whole thing. A lot of drifts up on the ridge. It's probably gonna be different after this storm but today it was bare rock and about 8 inches of light pow on top. Happy trails! |
