| Comments: |
Trail in great condition all the way up. The only snow that remains to cross is one large-ish slab of snow in the boulder field. This took about 15-20 steps to cross, and I did so in my trail runners. It is undermined and looks sketchy, but was very solid and held my weight without issue. The drop underneath if it were to break is 3-4 feet. The slab at the start of the scramble up the ravine is very dry, including what I'd consider the crux move transitioning off of that first big slab. Everything was dry and had no issues. Tucks still has some snow, and it's stability is unknown. I descended via Lion Head summer route. |
