 | Comments: |
Mostly snow free headed up to Whiteface with a couple patches here and there. Ledges were mostly dry. Snow was intermittent along Rollins, 2/3 of us didn’t put on spikes here, but it was still a little sketchy. Snow decreased as we descended to the col as well. The East Loop and Walden were 99% snow free but somewhat slick. Dicey’s Mill had some significant ice along the top, particularly the top 200’ vertical. Below Camp Rich was a breeze. |
