Started our hike with an incline. Breathing hard and stopping often. Switchbacks not as bad as I though. Path pretty good u til we started hitting the snow covered areas.  We put our microspikes on and tried to continue on the path. Lost the trail a few times due to snow. We kinda just followed others ahead of us. At some point snow was covering the majority of the area and we decided to hike up as trail was lost in snow. We reached the summit, but the best part was meeting so many PCT hikers that day. On the way down again lost our way a bit with all the snow but a guy yelled at us and guided us back to the trail. My first snow hike♥️
