Really enjoyed our hike on this beautiful, ledgy loop. Even with limited views, we still had a blast! There was some light ice on the ledges in spots and tons of wet rock everywhere due to recent rain. We were able to negotiate it ok, though, taking some extra care. No need for spikes (yet) but seems imminent! Took us 3 hours and 10 mins, which included a few extra mins to get across the water crossing and negotiate the steep wet slopes down. |
