condtions - bare ground first half mile, then mixed snow/ice & bare ground, then solid snow to summit. Once on the summit of D there was a well established monorail. No stream crossing, no real blowdowns but spruce to fight through in places along the ridge.
equipment - the four of us used a variety of equipment. One microspiked the whole thing, one snowshoed all of it, and the other two used both but in different places.
