Did the loop counter clockwise. Put on snowshoes part way up South and wondered why we waited so long....so much easier. Snowshoes were good to have between the peaks. Kept them on until the end of the loop then switched to spikes until within the last 1/2 mile.
Canada Jays were super aggressive. Basically like small seagulls. Please stop feeding them! It encourages the behavior. One of us almost lost a peanut butter sandwich and the other lost a piece of pepperoni right out of hand. |
