 | Comments: |
Bare trail runners until the first lookout, then it made sense to put on the rock spikes. Some icy sections can be avoided with lava game rock hopping, but it was quicker just to walk up the middle. Unstable knife blade of a monorail after the second lookout, but the summit cone is bare. |
