Beautiful day on Huron and spectacular climb (12 people on the mountain today) Parked 0.3 miles after 2wd trailhead (for conditions between 2wd Th and 4wd TH, check TH update). Tree line was a combination of hard snow (spikes), deep snow (snowshoes) and dry land. We couldn't find the summer trail so climbed way north of it towards Browns Peak before redirecting south towards the summit. Route finding between trees Snow had a hard crust above treeline making it a pleasant climb with spikes. Snow was becoming deeper close to summit and with temperatures increasing around 10am.. Return: once down the ridge, massive postholing til 4wd trailhead and snowshoes required for 90% of the time |
