 | Comments: |
Lot of scattered pockets of ice and some icy rivers on trail. Other parts of the trail were packed out. Not much snow in general. Plenty of places where the rocks were poking out of the snow. Microspikes highly recommend to deal with the ice. Snowshoes would currently be a bad choice until there is more snow. |
