 | Comments: |
The first 3/4 mile of the trail is pretty dry, then it started to get icy. Then steep, icy rock faces & scrambles, flowing water is mostly frozen...micro spikes at a minimum, crampons are the best choice... especially for the ascent. started to melt on the descent, some minor wet sections. |
