Comments
Comments: Took the Ammo up, bare booted up to the gem pool, then switched to microspikes for the steeper sections and higher water crossing. We got into the thick right at tree line and visibility dropped to <20ft. coupled with the fresh snow it was difficult to stay on trail at times. Broke through the clouds at about 6K ft. making for awesome views from the summit.
