Ascent Trip ReportGreat hike. First ones out on the trail so, we broke trail all the way up. Drifts were up to... you know what. The snow on the fire tower bench was above seat level. We climbed the tower very carefully it was all ice. Wind was extremely fast and we couldn't stay long. Took some pic's and got the hell down. Stopped for a bite to eat and then attempted Graham. About half way up my son injured his leg and we turned back. Another day....another time. Overall a great day.
