Glad to have Hillsounds for the hard packed concave trails which was a result of people butt sliding likely over the weekend. One of us had crampons which for the steeps was not overkill. It would have been great to be able to take advantage of the televators on our snowshoes (which we all carried but didn't use) but the way the trail was hard-packed, concave and narrow, it would have been awkward and even dangerous to use them on those sections. It sure was a great day to be out with perfect temps, little wind and enjoyable company. |
