| Comments: |
I was happy I brought microspikes. Saw one guy nearly wipe out and others struggling (all without any traction), although it's possible to get to the ledges without them. The monorail isn't consistent the entirety of the trail, but it was mostly stable with a few sections that either already broke or will soon break in the middle section where there's quite a bit of running water. |
