 | Comments: |
Slabs were mostly dry but there was some (avoidable) mud closer to the summit as well as some wet rocks. Would not want to do this trail when fully wet or covered in glaze ice since it would be hard to get traction even with spikes on very thin ice. Fairly protected from the wind most of the trail. Bottom of trail was a sea of leaves so you need to watch your footing because the hazards are hidden. |
