Comments
Comments: Nice hike, snow at the parking lot and throughout apart from water crossings and a few exposed rocks. Snow varied from packed to shallow loose powder. Didn't need snowshoes at any point. There was some ice visible under the snow at points, but it was minimal. There is a very steep section about 1.5 miles in that goes on for about a mile, strenuous and . Running water at a few crossings at the beginning of the hike. Thin ice on the streams, poles were helpful but not needed to cross.

Beautiful view at the summit of Osceola, well worth going to both peaks.
