 | Comments: |
The Fishin Jimmy Trail had a few spots with some large ice flows, but we were able to climb/bypass all of them. Used microspikes all day. Some may feel more comfortable with crampons on a few of the ice flows.
The Kinsman Ridge trail was well packed and microspikes worked very well. We met a large friendly group of hikers on the ridge. Everyone enjoyed the day and Jimmy got two more off his 4k list. Go Jimmy. |
