| Comments: |
I barebooted the whole way up and down as the snow was perfect and not deep due to the previous hikers making a trough. One spot near the top of the ridge where the snow had drifted into the trough, but only for a hundred yards or so. Easier to walk thru then stop and put on snowshoes. Great views from the top. |
