| Comments: |
We did an overnight with a car spot and stayed near Downs Brook on the Kate Sleeper trail. A lot of steep sections were present. With all the rain on Sunday, crampons would probably be useful on several steep sections this week. Crampons and ice axe recommended on the slide on the south side of South Peak. |
