 | Comments: |
lots of black ice on the rocks on the way up. Snow starts around 3800'. I didn't use microspikes but probably should have. Foot deep drifts at the top. Crawford path around the east side of Eisenhower peak had deep blue ice on most of that section of the trail. Very windy, very cold at the top, goggles/face mask was well worth bringing |
