Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Crossings are frozen over and seemed solid although I saw one spot where someone had put a foot through a previous day. You cant see where the rocks are so you just have to hope the bridge is strong enough.

Comments
Comments: The trail is well packed and in good condition. I used spikes from the car to the base of Brutus. Then switched to Hillsound Pro for the climb up & down. Others on the trail used snowshoes for this part but they were having trouble on the steeps coming down. Either way there are a lot of spots you are scraping rocks or dirt.
