snow starts at 6th, only a couple inches but makes for a bit slippery climbing. the first half or so of seventh is very slippery with 4-6" snow and has some big puddles. i think it'd be best to lay off it a while.

Pretty good shape. Rode Espresso late afternoon. Woodwork was a bit wet, a few decent sized puddles, but less blow-down and debris than I expected - pretty much clear.

No h2o in snow form at that point but a lot of it in liquid.
