Part of the gorgeous trail to Marmot Pass
A first look at the NE summit, not a cloud in the sky.
The high was below freezing so there was plenty of ice on the trail
I never tire of the novelty of snow covered moss
It's more interesting to carve a notch in a tree than to remove it from the trail completely.
Snow on trail. :D
