 | Comments: |
Trail well marked and in good condition. First third was dry. Middle of the trail and ledges were wet but not slippery. Last mile or so was a long highway of ice requiring spikes (crampons or ice axe wouldn't have been overkill). Several groups turned back because of no traction. Only one group of experienced trail runners bare booted it that I knew of. |
