| Comments: |
Doable but very confusing at the junctions with to many Bushwhack trails.Other than that no special equipment is needed- snow shoes are needed most of the trail and specially late in the day when the snow softens. Decided to not climb to the Peak finding the slide that climbs to the North intimidating. |
