Comments
Comments: Really good conditions, but bring spikes. Mostly stable monorail starts at about 3,000 feet and gets deeper as you ascend. I bare booted all day, but spikes would probably be the right call for folks less stubborn than me.

No need to be scared of anything on this one. Enjoy the mostly dry trail with mostly stable monorail.
