Great hike on trails covered with ice and up high thick flow ice. Do not attempt this trail without micro spikes at a minimum and crampons would be much better. Saw no one all morning and the round trip hike took 2:45 minutes due to all of the ice. Much harder descending. Perfect weather with clear blue skies and fantastic views from summit. Thanks Kara for a great birthday hike! |
