Wilderness Trail has thin layer of snow & ice on parts of it. After about a mile or so the Osseo Trail is covered with softened snow, then hard snow, and a little icy.
I brought snowshoes, microspikes, and Hillhounds.I barebooted most of the ascent. I put on microspikes for steepest section of Osseo, plus rocky climb to summit. The summit was very cold, very windy, and started hailing. I put on heavy down jacket. One of my microspikes broke, so put on Hillhounds(?sp). I wore those for most of the descent.

Clouds in and out. Hiked with Jeff who is a very good person to hike with.
