 | Comments: |
Bring your sharp spikes, lots if ice. Some mud avoidable,exposed rock, our spikes took a beating. Someone did some serious post holing at some point. Last 1/4 of a mile or so before summit was tough going, especially coming down, slushy soft slippery going. With the weather looking like above average temperature for the next week conditions probably won't improve any time soon. |
