Bare booted until steep section on East Osceola, then crampons. Snowshoes over to Osceola and back. Most wore snow shoes on the ridge otherwise you are going to posthole, but there were some bare booters and it didn't look like fun. Crampons back down the steeps. Hats off to those who can do that section on snowshoes! |
