| Comments: |
Lots of ice on the upper section of the trail, and on the ledges leading up to the summit. We would not have made it up without our microspikes.
Also, a gray jay followed us all the way up the second half of the trail and tried to take a bag full of crackers from the outer mesh of my pack... |
