We picked up another couple of inches from yesterday's storm, though it was more of a sand consistency with some sleet on top. Only a few folks had been up the trail since, and apparently all but one with snowshoes. The Microspiker was working pretty hard to get up hill in the sand-like snow, and as the trail became less consolidated up high, commenced to postholing. Looks like they thought about the loop trail, but turned around quickly, as the side trails haven't seen much, if any, use since the storm. Generally about 2 feet of snowpack at this point. Wear snowshoes.
Clear afternoon with temperatures in the 20s and a bit of wind. |
