Comments
Comments: Trail conditions were still pretty much as they were in the report from a few days ago. Mostly dry with areas of ice monorail but all of it was easily avoided. The ledges in the woods along the loop section had some black ice here and there but the summit ledges are dry.

Chilly up top with the wind but there wasn't a cloud in the sky.
