| Comments: |
Wore rock spikes the whole way but could have switched to sharper spikes particularly after the Webster Jackson split. Trail was dirt with thin layer of snow down low and slightly more snow with a lot of blue ice as you head up. A little tricky on the ledges just below the summit especially when descending. Of course if I had put my sharper spikes on it would have been easier! Lots of people out today. Surprising for a Wednesday! |
