This is a lovely, gentle 4000 Footer with some of the best views in the whites! There are lots of leaves especially in the lower part of the trail making for some slipping and sliding that required my attention. There was also some hard ice on the scramble to the summit. Although the ice was avoidable, my spikes are going in my pack on my next hike especially with the colder weather approaching this coming week. I love this hike and can’t wait to do it again and again. |
