 | Comments: |
Spring conditions today! Bare booted over 3 miles, only needed rock spikes in a few sections going up, and in the last .5 push to the summit. Broken/rotting monorail starts a couple miles in. Near the end there is still a bit of snow, so going off the monorail can result in some serious post holing, but no snowshoes needed [or maybe they are!]. |
