Took Lonesome Lake to Hi Cannon. No snow or ice on Hi Cannon. Bare booted the whole day. Small amount of snow once reaching Kinsman Ridge junction to summit but was a stable monorail. Beautiful day on the tower with very few clouds and only a few people. Took Kinsman Ridge to Lonesome Lake down. The top section was steep in parts with some wet rock and ice. We probably should have put our spikes on but were careful and took it slow. In our opinion taking Hi Cannon up and down would have probably been faster/easier if you aren’t afraid of the ladder (which wasn’t scary at all in our opinion). It was nice to go down the way we did though to go by the lake. Happy Hiking! |
