Route: Mt. Tecumseh trail, loop over/around the summit
Conditions:
- up to the ridge, soft pack, well broken-out
- on the ridge and around the summit, softer pack (eastern side of loop trail isn't quite fully broken out)
Gear used:
- started with bare boots, quickly switched to snowshoes to take advantage of heel lifts
- snowshoes were very helpful throughout, especially up on the ridge and around the summit
Stats:
- Moving time, 2:07:02 over 4.9 miles
- 2,184 feet of elevation gain (measured by the Strava app on my phone, so take with grains of salt!)
- Average pace of 26 minutes per mile
Pretty basic hike, good weather, not much more to report!
