Snow Climb to Round Top
1-18-22
Wanted to start 2022 off right with a trip to Round Top. This hike is a pretty challenging snow climb with steep terrain and some class 3 scrambling to reach the summit. I started at the Cason Pass PCT trailhead around 10 am.
The weather was beautiful! Temps started out in the teens.
After a short section in the trees the trail opens up to fantastic vistas.
Climbing above Winnemucca Lake, I reached the saddle below the summit of Round Top.
Reaching the summit, the vistas were beautiful!
The snow was deep and absolutly perfect! I didn't put my snowshoes on at all.
