| Comments: |
Hike from Lafayette Campground to Lonesome Lake Hut was easy, no traction needed. Fishin Jimmy Trail to Kinsman Junction was very icy, lots of iced over boulders, rock hopping on water crossings possible- spike helped a lot. Didn't make it to summit bc we didn't have enough traction (only one of us had spikes). |
