| Comments: |
Most people were carrying in snowshoes, but I only saw one person using them. Need some sort of traction, ideally with microspikes. As day carried on, trail was becoming messier, with more loose granular snow being churned up by all the traffic. Round trip was approximately 3:00 (2:15 up, brisk :45 down). |
