Comments
Comments: The trails were in fine condition after a month of non-use. There was a good amount of ice beneath the fresh powder, microspikes were fine but we switched to snowshoes due to the spikes balling up. Snowshoes all the way to the summit and we opted for spikes on the descent of Brutus. There were some small crossings which were a big leap but we made it out dry. Big crossings were not bad at all.
