Winter is back. Plan accordingly. This was a truely gorgeous day above treeline. Don't have much to add other than what bryan wrote, which was very good, must have crossed paths. Microspikes worked great, used them for the last .3 to treeline. Also explored a little bit on the Crawford Path towards Eisenhower, but had no intention of making it out there. Sadly dropped my camera on a rock breaking it before treeline and the unreal views of ice covered trees and snow capped presis, dooh! Explored Crawford Cliff spur, which must gain nearly 400 feet and is actually very rough, muddy, with bad footing. View was nice, toward Willey range and down on highland center, but not sure I would recommend it per se. |
