Snowshoes start to finish. Group of three, so it's well broken out now. We roughly followed Paul Heron's 9/1/19 track from peakbagger.com. There were some spots of squeezing through dense trees, but we avoided the infamous slash pile, making for a much easier hike than my last time (non-winter), which went right through the slash and would have been even harder in snowshoes. |
