Comments
Comments: Followed Lucky Laura's tracks until we met her descending. Good route finding on her part. Lots of weighed down spruce to deal with. Snow was firm, making snowshoeing easy. The final scramble took some work--ax helped. Crampons would be good in less snow. Great trip to Goose Eye with some good views. Good to hike w/Alex.
