 | Comments: |
Was able to spike up and down before things got too soft, but you have to stay in the middle of the trail and have good balance or you'll go for a fall. Quite a few postholes and divots down low and up high along the ridge, middle section through the steeps is in better shape but not great. The final approach to the summit has a partial monorail, which is 50/50 as far as stability goes.
Got lucky with the weather as it was sun and clouds. As soon as I finished at 10:30AM, the rain showers started.
