As long as you stay on the packed stuff you weren't punching through. Ascended the chimney, minor ice bulge in the middle, descended the bypass which has rocks, roots, and trees for handholds. Early morning hike with Whitney and Kyle, saw only a few other happy hikers out and about. Love the steep ascent up to East Peak! |
