| Comments: |
Ammo Ravine Trail above Jem Pool has been packed and slicked by butt sliders. Hillsound Pro were barely enough for me to safely climb it. Wish I'd brought real crampons for that stretch. Hillsound Trail Crampon or MicroSpikes were good above tree line to the top of the Cog ROW. Skis would have been nice for a smoother, faster descent. |
