 | Comments: |
Trail conditions are variable as you ascend starting with bare ground/snow, then ice/snow, and finally just snow.
Ascent
1 mile - overhead blow downs
1.25 miles - put on rock spikes
2.1 miles - stake in center of trail that took off my spike when I stepped on it
Descent
Poles were super helpful
0.8 miles from end - took off spikes and promptly fell, wish I had worn them all the way to the car |
