Comments
Comments: I gridded out all four peaks and the month of october. The traverse was a mix of mud and ice. The twins were both pretty icy. North twin trail in particular had some icy rock scrambles. I would bring microspikes for them. Between the two there was alot of mud. Garfield ridge was not very icy except for some patches near the waterfall. The last .2 mile climb to garfield was icy as well.
