| Comments: |
Spikes up Blueberry to the bottom of the steeps. Changed to shoes for the added traction and televators. Excellent purchase to include going up over the ledges. Rollins was drifted in the usual places anywhere from a few inches to one foot. I kept the shoes on till Dicey then switched back to spikes to go up Mt P and all the way back to my truck. |
