Mount Walker — Tuesday, Dec. 25, 2018

There were more than a few happy hikers on the trail this Christmas Day; apparently this is quite a popular spot even on a holiday. There are two blowdowns across the trail -- no problem to cross, although small children may need help. It was snowing/sleeting at the summit (no views today) and there was a light layer of crunchy snow. (A highly localized white Christmas!) All the cleared areas at the summit had a little snow on the ground, but we never needed to break out the microspikes. Someday we'll return to take in the views, which I hear are amazing on a clear day.
