 | Comments: |
Microspikes were fine lower down but our group found crampons much more effective higher up. Did see a few people on microspikes the entire way and one person on snowshoes but would not recommend it.
Kestrel data: T 15, Wind <10, WC 0 to 5 below. Beautiful day after it cleared for Brenda, Joan, Ryan and Jake. Al, hope to have you along next time. |
