12/31/22: From St. Mary’s TH with snowshoes and switching to Trax at the glacier base. Very large snow blown rollers would pass down the glacier valley every few minutes making travel even more laborious with gale force winds on the summit area. Skies never cleared but still a cool day on the mountain. Paul turned back just shy of the Flats.
