| Comments: |
19 Mile had a couple of icy patches. Was able to bare boot to Zeta Pass with no problems. Needed snowshoes from there to rebreak the trail that had drifted in at various sections. Windy at the summit! Careful going down if you continue to the hut. Changed over to crampons about 1/2 way down due to the steepness and hidden ice. |
