There was perhaps 6" of fresh snow at the trailhead. This increased fairly rapidly as we went up. There was close to 18" at the ledges and perhaps 24" at the top with drifts of up to 3'.
The trail was clear from bottom to top with no blowdowns. No stream crossings of any significance.
For what it is worth with another storm coming in tomorrow, the trail was broken out with snowshoes today. The logbook indicates 3 to 4 trips up the mountain each week including weekdays, so even with new snow if you wait a day or two you may find the trail broken out.
The trailhead was not plowed so I shoveled a place for my car.
There was no wind at all today and the trees above the ledges were loaded with snow and absolutely gorgeous.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
It was 19F at the top so full winter clothing recommended.
