 | Comments: |
Microspikes both ways. The monorail is very stable on the Blueberry Ledge trail but slick. The cliffs up Whiteface are icy and treacherous. I wouldn't venture down them. Not enough ice for crampons. Rollins monorail stable. Dicey's Mill monorail good except above the Rollins Trail where the water is running fast. |
