| Comments: |
The trail is in outstanding condition. Summer or winter it will never be better. The trail is not steep and can be barebooted. I used Hillsounds going up and due to the warmish conditions and sticky snow and balling I barebooted most of the way back. The snow is deep enough for crampons and snowshoes. The trail is so solid I didn't posthole the entire hike. It is, of course, much smoother than in the summer. |
