Comments
Comments: Great day on the Osceolas, but holy hannah East Peak is steep! Hadn't done it in 2 years and apparently I repressed that part. Beautifully packed out trail, but due to the steepness, I wish I'd taken my snowshoes or crampons. Spikes just weren't quite grippy enough, but we mananged. Gonna be a beast when I starts to melt. Ran into a couple other hikers who all looked like they were enjoying themselves!
