Winter hiking records9

Mountains with a record of the editor climbing in December–March (the snow and residual-snow season). Each page shows what the snowy season was really like, from that day's measured times, photos and video.

Listing criteria: mountains where the date of the editor's hiking record (GPX log) falls between December and March.

⚠️ Snow-covered mountains are far more dangerous than in the snow-free season. Proper gear (crampons, cold-weather clothing, and so on), experience, and checking that day's weather and snow conditions are essential. Please also read the "Cautions" on each page.
