Comments
Comments: We used spikes up to about 2500 feet on the Osseo, then switched to shoes for the better traction, breaking about an inch. Ladders were drifted in and the shoes worked fine. Above the ladders some drifts were knee deep, up to the slide junction. From there to Liberty and down, trail was packed. We switched back to spikes below about 3000 on way down Lib Spgs.
