| Hiked the road the day after a very cold storm that left snow all the way down to Cachuma Saddle. After leaving the road, I climbed up from the NW through 6 inches of dry, unconsolidated powder to the summit. On the way down, I took the ridge that tops out near where the NW ridge meets the road which made for a very quick descent that cut off at least a mile from the road. |
