Comments
Comments: Toward the summit to Starr King and between Starr King and Waumbek, there is melting monorail in places. But there is dry trail in between section of ice making it hard to wear microspikes. So we used caution and our treking poles and did fine in bareboots- microspikes came along for the ride. Weather was beautiful.
