| Comments: |
Take caution with North Slide, could be done with microspikes however crampons are highly recommended. An ice axe would bebeneficial too. Most areas were icy covered by snow. I found the first quarter of the slide was the worst. In hindsight probably should have done the Scaur Trail but once on the slide you are committed...no turning back! Yes, I was a little scared! |
