One fellow ahead of our party of 4, and we met him on summit of E. Osceola on his return - thanks for your trailbreaking efforts. Carried a 5mm rope for the chimney which a party of two behind us used on their ascent, and we used on our descent. Trail well-broken as of yesterday afternoon - we needed snowshoes top to bottom.
Had forgotten how steep East Osceola is from the Kanc! Easier to ascend than descend. |
