Still some mud, snow, ice on trail.

Started out overcast and stayed that way all the way up and back. At the summit, the wind was about 15-20 mph and low 40's.

Never seen the sun until I was back at my truck.

The picture where you see what looks like three trails near the peak (hard to tell which way to go with the blowing clouds), keep RIGHT. The middle one is knee deep snow. When you get there and can't see the top, you don't know which fork to take. I started on the wrong one. Some of the tracks went to the far left one and some to the middle one. They probably found out the hard way like I did and had to fight the deep snow to get out of it.
