Mt Hale Conditions?

[chinooktrail]

Has anyone been up to Mount Hale lately?
Just wondering about the conditions.
I need an 'easier' hike on Sunday and think this may just fill the bill.
Thanks!

I haven't been up there, but it will prob be pretty sloppy by Sunday with all the mild weather we will be getting. Its supposed to rain all the way into the Whites this weekend so the snow will prob be soft, mucky and slick. I'd assume the ice further up will be slick too because there will be a thin film of water covering it. Bring traction just in case.

Thanks, I will bring my 'new' crampons! Good to try them out.
