 | Comments: |
Bare booted until the loop trail when we put on our snowshoes. My choice for the televaters. Not necessary though. Trail is solid but you’ll post hole if you step off the trail. Going up North and down South Hancock is very icy. Crampons would be the best choice here. No issues on the ridge. The closer you get to South Hancock the new snow is deeper and not as packed. |
