 | Comments: |
Trails were mostly dry until 2500-3000 feet. Osseo trail was tough at the ladders due to ice build up. It was ok getting up with light traction, but crampons would have added a level of confidence and safety. Going down was much more difficult and it was best handled going backwards on the steps with ropes and spotters. |
