We forgot our spikes and snowshoes would've been too much so we bare booted it. Trail was packed down with snow covering most of the ice, but some parts got slippery due to the steep climb. Easily avoidable by going off the trail onto softer, less used snow. Spikes would've made it much easier! Less ice and more snow when it starts to level off near the lookout point. Beautiful views along the way!! |
