 | Comments: |
This trail had a bit of everything. Dry at bottom, muddy with some running water below gem pool, significant stretches of monorail above gem pool to lakes of the clouds. The monorail was at times unstable, stable, post holes, wide, narrow and significantly elevated. Most of the monorail was soft snow but some ice stretches. Above ~4800 mostly dry trail. The monorail being on the steeper parts we felt micro spikes were needed in the way up. On the way down didn’t feel confident without trail crampons in ~6 sections. |
