 | Comments: |
Last night’s storm did not leave any snow on the summit. However, melting ice chunks were falling from the trees today. The tail is pretty muddy so I wore my waterproof winter boots and gaiters and that was fine. No traction required at this time. But be careful because a lot of the rocks and roots were slippery. No monorail. |
