It was clear day in the valley but once we reached the snow covered road at the top things quickly became foggy. Road is passable to nearly the top. 1/4 mile of walking on the road will get you to an area of avalanche debris run-out off of Suak Mtn. from the heavy snows this winter that will liely take some time to melt out. Trail is clear for 1/2 mile of switchbacks and is then covered in snow. We had to kick steps. Bring an ice axe. more than one party had to turn back because of steep snow and no trail. The final 1,000 ft is snow covered. Fun gisading off of the summit! A great day on Sauk despite the fog!
