Comments
Comments: Trail well frozen and hard packed throughout. Some fresh snow, loose snow, and several inch drifts on upper sections. Microspikes worked well on entire trail and between peaks. Crampons would have been better on steep sections especially descending. Snowshoes would work well also.
