Comments
Comments: The trail is mostly a river up to about 2,800’(after the eyebrow intersection)

2,800-3,500 is a mix of dirt, ice and monorail.

3,500’+ the rotting monorail took over. You will want spikes from here up. My elbow and ass say you probably want to leave them on the decent for a little longer.
