 | Comments: |
Barefoot almost to summit - trail had minor snow and it was packed down. About one mile away from summit put on spikes as the trail was super icy. Last 1/4 mile to summit turned back packed powder. Did this in microspikes but if you had crampons they would help. Wore microspikes almost the whole way down as it was beginning to warm up and was slippier on the way down than on the way up. |
