New Year's Eve hike yesterday. Not much to report on. there was snow but not enough for me. Snow about halfway up. Spikes went on for the uppermost portion. Saw one or two people out later in the hike on the way down. Big part of that trail to Dutcher Notch is a terrible trail. It was a good day. Nothing special but a good day.
Happy New Year
