| Comments: |
In the morning the monorail was hard and packed through all of the trails. By PM it started to become a bit mashed potatoes but snowshoes are overkill at the juncture. One significant ice flow between elephant head and bugle cliff turn offs. Take care here and at the Final pitch to the Jackson summit. |
