Comments
Comments: Slabs were dry and fairly easy to ascend with good grip on footwear. Some mud presented a cautious moment at an exposed ledge about 3/4 of the way up HRT. Nelson Crag to summit was in good shape. A bluebird day to tackle this challenging trail. Due to time constraints created by outside distractions, we opted to use the shuttle service. Wonderful option, and well worth the price and tip for the quick trip down.
