Comments
Comments: We followed one set of snowshoe tracks from Kanc to halfway up N Hancock slide where they stopped. 3 of us in snowshoes broke trail to the N Hancock summit and layed down a very nice track. One snowshoer came up behind us, but turned around before the summit.

Nothing is broken between N and S peaks, nor down S Hancock slide.

That snow is deep and slippery! Happy trails to whoever finishes breaking out the loop
