Comments
Comments: Might have been able to do the Ammo trail in just hillsounds, but I wouldn't recommend it. I was very glad I had my crampons. Extremely icy! Windy up top with some pretty significant gusts that almost knocked me over, but surprisingly warm in the sun out of the wind. Saw a good number of people today. Took a pretty good spill on Jewell where I'd taken off my spikes due to the large amount of rock exposure. Nothing broken, but smashed up my left hand pretty good. Otherwise it was a gorgeous day on the rock pile! Be careful out there y'all!
