| Comments: |
The first couple miles had a slight incline. On mile three it started to get steeper and also had a dusting of snow. The snow never completely cover any rocks or leaves. The last .2 miles where it got really steep requiring using hand holds had some icy spots. We barefooted the entire way to the summit, but put on micro spikes to descend the upper .2 miles just to be on the safe side. |
