Mt. Liberty Speed Hike
Date: 2/25/2012
Route: Whitehouse to Liberty Springs, up and down.
Conditions: Perfectly packed out. Wore crampons the whole day - got a little soft near the top.
Hikers: me and Dogman
Dogs: Trudy & Spanky The Wonder Dog
Comments: Speed hike to the summit (1:50). Full battle gear needed in the high winds and blowing ice and snow. Full packs on the ascent but stripped down to thin base layer w/ sleeves rolled up. Almost died in the explosive winds/ice/snow... well, not really. But it was damned cold.
