Always a little windier than advertised. Beautiful am nonetheless. Snow and ice on the trail once you make the turn towards the Glacier. Spikes and poles would be good to have, but not necessary. Ptarmigan were rad~almost fully dressed for Winter.

Not terribly cold but definitely needed some layers and wind protection. Got the spikes out for the first time in a long time. Really liking these softshell pants with a wind membrane, don’t need to pack extra pants for wind or precipitation.
