Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Several on Sabbady ascent require careful planning if you rock hop and twice the boots and socks came off for a refreshing wade across, think 3rd and 4th crossings. Water levels definitely high and hade to go upstream/downstream a few times for later crossing. slowed me down quite a bit. Descent on Pine Bend were easily navigated

Comments
Comments: Never saw another person all day, first for me, decided to ascend Sabbaday with the hopes the skies would clear and would get some views and wanted to check out the falls. Nice pleasant ascent despite the off/on drizzle and river navigation. Bare booted to about 1/2 mile below Sabbady/Mt Tripyramid junction and spikes came on as recent melt was all glare ice. Slushy snow conditions and on again off again rail. very narrow in places but for most part held out fine. No views at summit, descended via Pine Bend, snow depths considerably deeper than Sabbady
