Alright our second attempt. We used spikes all day as the trail is very well packed... no postholing at all. We saw 3 people out today, 1 Guy coming up just for liberty and 2 guys who did flume slide and did a loop. They said crampons are needed and looked like someone butt slid down it. Well the brook crossing we had issues with 2 weeks ago has bridged over a lot compared to before. We made it to Liberty and barely any wind. We could see all the way to washington as the clouds were high. We made it to flume and came back to liberty and headed down. Great day out! The wind picked up on our decent of liberty the second time. |
