 | Comments: |
Trail was a bit of a sloppy mess, with a little bit of everything. With the warm weather, there was a lot of melting but also still lots of ice above about 2000 ft. Everything got pretty much soaked from dripping trees. Two of us barebooted the whole way, one chose to use microspikes for the first half of the descent, due to many icy rocks. |
