With a group hike of Battle Bluff planned, I was worried about snow, mud, and ice so I scouted the trail going to a viewpoint about halfway along the trail. There was mud and wet spots at the start, ice and mud on the next section, dry sections in the middle, then I could see snow on the north side of Battle Bluff. We will not be returning with dry or clean boots for sure.
