| Water Crossing Notes: |
A gentleman ahead of us said that one of the water crossings was not passable so he threw in the towel but we made it. Guess it depends on how comfortable you are with rock hopping or for those of us with shorter legs, leaping. Water was flowing pretty fast. |

| Comments: |
A mixed bag of ice, mud, slush, stable and unstable monorail and plenty of post holes. Made it with microspikes although some may have preferred crampons today. Chimney was bare rock with flowing water and easy to navigate. |
