Trail Conditions:
Trail broken out to true summit of Whiteface (Rollins trail beyond is unbroken.) Very well-consolidated now to junction with Wiggin trail, some loose spots above. Ledges are somewhat challenging but snow/rock mix with very little ice.
Required equipment: Snowshoed the whole way--may not be necessary on lower parts now, but you'll definitely want them higher up. Some traction definitely necessary up high. Never switched to crampons.
Comments: Thanks to Matt C.! Didn't see your report before but your work was appreciated.
