 | Comments: |
Trail is hard packed up to jct. with Garfield Ridge Trail and bare bootable. The short section of the Garfield Ridge Trail to the summit is glare ice and I would highly recommend crampons. micro spikes just wouldn't cut it. There is just a little snow on the ice, and it is very steep. |
