 | Comments: |
The trail all the way up to the summit was well packed. About half the people I saw were in snowshoes, the other half in microspikes/crampons. I had considered continuing on to Flume, but the trail off the summit wasn't broken out yet, and I wasn't familiar enough to try it on my own. (However, a there was another trail just before the summit that was broken out. Are there two paths to Flume?) |
