 | Comments: |
The top of Greenleaf Trail below Lafayette had one very icey section, which older spikes had no traction on. One person in our group slid on it and two people behind us fell too. People with sharper trail crampons fared better. Old Bridle had icey patches that required care while descending. Otherwise, an absolutely lovely day up on the ridge! |
