| Comments: |
Besides the scrambles on Blueberry Ledge (which get harder as I get older), there's quite a bit of seepage ice on rocks in the upper several hundred feet of elevation. Navigating that hazard was a little tricky. With the colder weather during the next few days, that will increase and progress down-mountain. Similarly, there are muddy stretches up high with an icy crust on them that will freeze solid in the next few days. We had sun and clouds, light winds, and a few spits of snow (actually graupel) off and on. |
