| Comments: |
The lower section of the trail is snowless, with trace depths halfway up and some significant ice higher up. We used light traction for part of the decent. Views were okay, but a bit cloudy. Not too many others out.
It was great to get to this peak that I had looked at for a long time, but had not gotten around to hiking. Thanks Emma for coming up for a 'series.' |
