Started out with little snow on the trail, it became packed snow, never more than a 4-6 inches.
The weather forecast was for rain/snow all week but end up being sunny. The early part of the trip was snow free and then just a little snow. When the trail became packed snow, we put our micro spikes on.
Stream crossing
View from trail just before heading up to the ridge.
When we reached the point to leave the trail and head for the ridge, we put on the snowshoes. Most likely not need, but it was a snowshoe trip. We then follow the ridge to the sunny viewpoint.
Overall an enjoyable trip.
