| Comments: |
Ice! Ice everywhere! And this is a steep rocky trail. You need traction. We used microspikes and a lot of tree hugging. This is the first time I thought full crampons would have been useful. We had one in our party loose traction and slide pass the others before being caught. Fun? Yes. Sketchy? Most definitely. |
