Desolation, Carter Notch, Signal Ridge
Started after staying over night at the Carrigan Notch, Desolation junction. Desolation up to the summit was challenging. Significant snow and ice, in last 0.7 miles
Or so up desolation To the summit. Wet roots, rocks, ice and postholing. Trip down Carter Notch from summit had a few snowy patches but overall avoidable and spikes not needed. |
