Comments: We hiked the Carters and A today but the previous report by Georg on the Carters was spot on so I wont reproduce his efforts.

Wildcat ridge up from the hut was well broken but snowshoes are a must for the steep terrain. There's some confusion at the first turn due to someone trying to bushwhack up the switchbacks. Its been marked by branches and XXX written in the snow and its really pretty hard to mess up.

Smooth sailing down 19MB, though we wore snowshoes the entire way to the parking lot.
