Comments
Comments: Really stunning view from North Twin. This hike has a GREAT payoff on a clear day. It's pretty sustained elevation gain, but never all that steep.

Some parts are very well-packed with monorail, others have tons of postholes. As the weather keeps warming, snowshoes are a really good idea on this hike.
