The road is closed at the parking lot. There is bootpack trench to the radio towers and snowshoe trench to timberline. I climbed the east ridge, which is sufficiently wind-scoured that snow can be avoided (Photo 1). It was also very windy, so I descended the summer route which looks clean from the summit ridge (Photo 2) but actually crosses several fresh windslabs (ex. Photo 3). |
