Comments
Comments: Trail started out wet and muddy with patches of ice. The amount of ice increased and we put on Hillsounds. The Crawford Path is well packed down so the monorail is very stable. We tried to go to Eisenhower but after post holing to my thigh we decidecd to just get Pierce and circle around by the hut and come down the Mizpah Cutoff. The rocky summit of Pierce is free of ice and snow. Going to the hut there is unstable monorail and some rock stretches that are free of ice and snow. The Mizpah Cutoff was very unstable with postholing randomly occuring
