My friend and I chose the old bridle path to avoid water crossing on falling water trail. however We met several people starting and crossing by this trail. Seems to be feasable. We did not take the risk.
The trail was a bit a annoying between wet rocks, narrow monorail, sometimes very soft, with mashed potatoe snow...We saw people in sneaker ... Well that was not the best idea... they probably just struggle more and are higher risk for twisting their anckle. We Put, remove, put remove the microspike several times all the way to green leaf hut. From there, you can keep the microspike until you arrive in alpine zone . Snow was there. After it is just all the way up on rocks, the ridge was pretty dry too. Was a great walk on the ridge! |
