Comments
Comments: Trail was packed from the trailhead to the junction for Mount Avalon, and spikes would have been fine, but we chose snowshoes. The snow got soft after that and we were glad we had snowshoes on. Going up to Avalon is steep! And the traction of the snowshoes plus the televators were great! Trail between Field and Willey had many post holes, was soft snow. Very narrow most of the time.
