Love this route. Access to Big Coolidge, So. Whaleback, Whaleback, and Flume from this former trail. Steep, but not too eroded... and in good shape. Unofficially maintained and relatively easy to follow. Yellow blazes most of the way. Some ice and slippery mud near the top 100'... and as it was super steep, Microspikes were helpful. Half of our group did an out and back. The other half of our group continued up to Flume & Liberty. |
