 | Comments: |
The trail is very wet and lower levels icy. After the stairs spikes would be helpful.
The first crossing near lot was easy - water flowing over the rocks. The second crossing was much more challenging. The third crossing was similar to the first. Waterproof gear will be your friend on this hike.
After the view, snowshoes were definitely a good choice. Some post holes along the way, but the layer of snow was soft enough that they didn't interfere with snowshoes. No view, windy at the summit - wet and rainy most of the hike. |
