Absolutely beautiful clear sunny day, but bring your flotation. 12+ inches of powder that was very slow-going to move through, 0.7 mph and 400 feet per hour elevation gain. Broke trail about 3 miles up to the intersection of Tom Wiggin trail before throwing in the towel; didn't think my food/water would keep me going, and didn't want to be caught out after dark. Passed a party going up on the way out, hope they were able to take advantage of the broken out trail and summit! |
