 | Comments: |
I was able to bare boot till just after the new trail rejoins the old trail and than put on spikes until the North Twin Spur. I used snowshoes across the ridge which helped with the spring snow. Their is still a good amount of snow up high and snowshoe will be helpful to stay on the monorail. |
