 | Comments: |
We used light traction to the Eisenhower Loop Jct. then switched to crampons from there to the top and we chose to keep them on all the way back to the Junction with the Webster Cliff Tr just below Pierce where we switched back to light traction. There were many ice flows between the two peaks and crampons offered better security along this section. Wind was less than 2 mph on Eisenhower and temp was 6 degrees. |
