 | Comments: |
Trail well-packed. I used snowshoes all the way up, which I found helpful, particularly from about .25 miles below the Alpine Zone through the summit. I was the second person up and first down by my count, and at least a dozen people, so, until next snow, the trail will be fairly well packed and easy to traverse with just micros. Minimal exposed rock, only really at the stream crossings, which were easy to negotiate. |
