Hikes with Hannah
Member
Trail started out with crusty ice with a few inches of packed powder, increasing to 4-6" in the glades and 8-12" up above the outlook. A bit of wind above the outlook, maybe 15-20mph at the summit. No sun but good views, with only Lafayette and Lincoln in the clouds. Snow lower down became a bit slushy on the descent. Wore microspikes the whole hike, saw others mostly wearing micros or Hillsounds with a few people barebooting - left my snowshoes in the car and didn't regret the decision since even the deeper snow up high was pretty well packed. No major trail maintenance issues to speak of.
Hannah had an easy day - no issues with the terrain, warm enough for only one coat, and plenty of chances to charge down the trail on the descent.
Great hike on another unseasonably warm "winter" day.
