 | Comments: |
Surprisingly there was almost zero ice anywhere so no spikes were necessary unless you use nanos on wet rock. And there’s the rub. It was wet. There was water everywhere. Didn’t bother us, but the rocks were definitely slick in spots. If your footwear isn’t waterproof your feet are likely to get wet until everything freezes up. |
