April 11, 2021. Did Mount Defiance Trail out and back. Boots to the summit and microspikes on the way down. Snowshoes are not needed as the snow was only really deep around the summit and it was frozen. Lots of trails around and leading to the summit in the snow so having GPS or being familiar with the actual trail without snow would be helpful.
