Comments
Comments: Skim Ice was a real problem about 2/3 of the way up to Osceola. Not enough for spikes, but enough to cause some real slippery conditions in the morning hours. Some very tricky spots. Be careful if it’s fallen below freezing overnight. Those slabs were nasty. No issues on the trail to East.
