Comments
Comments: Counterclockwise to Welch was essentially snow and ice free. A few insignificant patches easily avoided. A few areas of wet ledge.


Between the peaks was also virtually snow and ice free. A few areas of wet ledge as well.


Two smallish areas of ice partway down Dickey, a few dozen feet long each. Was able to get by without traction. Both are in the shade, so they may linger for awhile. A few areas of wet ledge also.
