Beautiful blue-bird day for this hike. My hiking buddy's second 4k. The monorail was not supportive in places, and the higher up we found spikes to be needed. There were some hikers who were bare-booting but we put ours on around 4,200'. I took mine off at the first ledge outcrops and bare-booting from there to the summit was fine--but they went on again before the descent. |
