Best Hiking Window
Monday, March 2 offers the best conditions in the near-term window — mainly clear skies and similar cold temperatures with a slightly lower chance of precipitation. Early morning starts are recommended to maximize the available daylight (approximately 11 hours). Avoid Sunday due to overcast conditions and gusting winds already in place. Tuesday, March 3 should be avoided entirely due to a 64% chance of snow.

Conditions: Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular
“Ascended anti-clockwise intending to do the loop but as of 10:30a on 2/27 the trail was not broken out beyond the Hedgehog summit. I didn’t feel like risking it solo so I went down the way I came up. The trail otherwise is great, packed nicely albeit kinda loose up top. I thought it was packed down enough to use micro spikes but was still scolded by a snowshoer. So wear whatever serves. A beautiful morning.”

“Excellent day for Hedgehog. Trail has a solid base with approximately 1.5 inches of unconsolited snow on top. Micros from start to finish but very deep snow trailside. Crossed paths with one other hiker today. Beautiful views both on Hedgehog and the East Ledges. Approached the summit anticlockwise and feel this is the way to go”

“Couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day today! Trails are all well packed highways. I barebooted, but some may prefer micros. Shoutout to Bill and friends for their hiking suggestions and conversation! Hope you guys make it to Momo's soon! Haha”
