| Comments: |
Trail is bone dry down low. Started encountering snow about 2500 feet after the trail swings right up rock steps where we had to put micro spikes on to walk on the monorail. The ladders were for the most part covered in snow. Above the ladders the monorail was unstable and some of us were post-holing due it not being clearly defined. Last bit to summit is clear so we took off our spikes. A wonderful day to hike. |
