Date of Hike: 12/22
Trail Conditions: Greeley pond is well packed to the intersection with the osceola trail. Bare bootable. Osceola trail to East Osceola is pretty well packed with pockets of unconsolidated snow. Steep at times, but again bare bootable. Connection over to Osceola is unpacked, knee deep in spots, and has patches of deep snowdrifts. Would recommend snowshoes, but again is bare bootable.
Special Equipment Required: Microspikes (If uncomfortable on steep snow, but not necessary) Snowshoes (for the mile over to Osceola, and back to East)
Comments: Trail was really nice all the way to the top of East Osceola. Over to Osceola the trail wasn't bad. Spent the whole day bare booting. Snowshoes would have made sense to put on to start packing out the trail to Osceola. Seems like it was recently traveled, but snowdrifts filled it in. Was able to glissade a good amount on the way down.
