Bryce trail has some snow, some bare ground and a lot of ice. The col between the two ledges is snow covered. The area from the col to Cathedral ledges is treacherous in places - we grabbed onto trees and went offtrail to keep from slipping, even with spikes on. The trail from the col to White Horse ledges is better with regards to ice. From WH ledges down to Echo Lake (to complete the loop), trail is plagued with refrozen boot marks and post holes in spots.
We wore microspikes from the car - and up and down Cathedral I secretly wished I'd brought my crampons. Cold but clear day.
