Best Hiking Window
Tuesday offers the best window in the next 48 hours as high pressure crests over the region, bringing improving skies, dampened winds, and better visibility. An early morning start Tuesday is strongly recommended to maximize the calmer midday window before clouds return Tuesday night ahead of the approaching low. Even on Tuesday, summit temperatures will remain in the single digits to low teens with residual wind and full winter alpine conditions — this remains a difficult, serious undertaking requiring expert mountaineering judgment. Wednesday conditions deteriorate again.
