Comments
I summited Circle Awl Peak with Kahtoola spikes. I packed snowshoes but didn't need them. The snow structure was massively crusted, especially the last 500 feet to Circle Awl.
I didn't observe any avalanche activity. I had great views of Raymond, Gobblers, Kessler, etc., and didn't see any clear indications of any recent avalanches.
