Comments
Comments: Ice, ice, ice, and more ice. Warm temps over the last couple of days have made the track very icy and thin of snow cover. Good news was that the descent was not nearly as sketchy as we thought it would be due to the sun softening up the ice throughout the morning.

Spikes will suffice, just pick your route carefully.
