 | Comments: |
Ice on the trail gets serious at around 2100ft. Microspikes are essential. Difficult to descent without at least one hiking pole.
About 8 cars at the Old Path parking lot so we went to the New Path. Only 1 at the New Path lot. We encountered only one other hiking party at one of the view points. No problem maintaining social distancing. |
