 | Comments: |
The weather behaved, minimal wind and ample views from both peaks. Snowshoes up and back. The trail is in good condition, but too many hikers not wearing snowshoes and the trail was a bit messy especially in the top 1/3 of the hike. I don’t understand why more hikers don’t embrace snowshoes; safe, great stability, televators, what’s not to like?!? |
