Conditions - Report by syzygy still valid though yesterday's flurries added enough snow that open areas between peaks were drifted in, some care needed if it becomes windy again. Cold temps meant no postholing, in fact we cut through the woods on descent once out of the fir forest rather than follow the meandering trail. Didn't save time but it was easier on the feet, not so hard.
Equipment - barebooted to fir forest, then microspikes for the remainder of the hike. Poles
