Comments
Comments: Today was a true gift of a day, balmy & warm up the summit cone. Got rewarded with my choice to go up Jewel with being able to bareboot up to 3800' while dodging patchy blue ice. Other then one obnoxious stretch at 5000' on Jewel aside both ways, I had spikes on the entire way to the summit and back down to 3800'. If anyone needs to create rock spikes for the current conditions, the northern presis are an excellent choice for the glorious task of dulling spikes
