Comments
Comments: The col between the two mountains still has some residual snow with post holes. Only one of our group used micro-spikes here but the rest of us went slowly and did just fine. Avoid the melt water on the bald rock faces when possible, it was easy to slip. We also saw a rock climber on the descent from Dickey. Overall it was a great hike with some wonderful views along the way!
