Comments
Comments: This is a very nice route,a bit confusing at the beginning with multiple footbeds, just stick left when in doubt, get to the stream and you will pick up the tote rd, from there it's easy to follow the trail. Really nice Valley, when you break right and ascend to the Ridge, it gets pretty steep. Once you gain the ridge,Ridge, an easy mile to the top. Mash potato city today, but I wore my 3 season Soloman gtx, good call they do great with my K10's.
