An absolute epic day, if you've never hiked up Kings Ravine on a bluebird day add it to your bucket list! Amazing views, spent so much time hanging out in the sun with no wind missed our window to Madison, oh well. Micro-spikes off & on Lower Air Line beginning of Kings Ravine. Running water on way to Adams. Valley Way, ice was soft just Micros but crampons would not be overkill. Do not underestimate the ice, on a cold day this would be a very dangerous descent.
Just a great day in the Whites! |
