Comments
Comments: Nicely packed trail the whole way. Used Microspikes to the start of the steeps and switched to snowshoes for climb up to north. Left them on across ridge. A few post holes but nothing major. Buttsliding appears to be the method of choice coming down from South peak and was a blast.
