Nothing much to add to Elizabeth's report other than you will need to step on submerged rocks at the one big crossing. Nothing deep. The crappy monorail starts around the forest protection zone sign just before the cabin, and is on and off from there. I bare booted with no issue, although in spots it is too narrow to walk on and very icy on the sides. Be prepared to post hole from Cabin to summit. Snowshoes would be nice but not worth the effort to get them there. It's either a hoot or a $hit show depending on your state of mind. Figures that the sun would come out when we got back to the car. |
