Comments
Comments: Hiked Burroughs Trail to summit with group of 7. 1 foot new powder on trail to point just below exposed summit. No ice issues. Summit top has about ~4" snow with light rime ice & blowouts. Snowed lightly entire day. We used snowshoes entire way. Monroe Trail looked similar. Long Trail hadn't been broken out yet. Saw about 12 other hikers plus a number of skiers on lower elevations.
