Snow conditions were mostly hard capped under the trees with soft sugary stuff everywhere else. We were able to stay on top of it most of the day. Route finding very straight forward on this trip.
7 of us. Left TH at 8:15 summiting Jove at about 2:15. Back to the cars about 7:15. Seemed like it was lightly snowing lightly most of the day & quite windy on top of Jove. In contrast Union was calm as could be with welcome blue sky appearing in sucker holes above. Trip itself was pretty uneventful but shared in good company by a capable group.
