What to take: Snow shoes, hiking shoes, warm enough clothes (layers), food, drinks, sunscreen, sunglasses, a good mood!

The restaurant on top is closed in winter, so bring lunch!

Pace: Moderate pace. ~350 elevation per hour, spending ~2.5 hours going up. Then have lunch at ~12:30 at the top. I expect the hike to end around ~16:00 (assuming that the sun disappears and we don't want to stay up there very long).

Grade:

• If snowshoeing: Snowshoeing, physically demanding, not dangerous.
  
• If hiking: I expect the hiking paths to maybe still be slippery/muddy from the molten snow. Bring hiking poles.
