Comments
Comments: Microspikes went on fairly quickly up Blueberry Ledge trail.. there is snow and ice on the upper ledges.. sharp spikes necessary.. I switched to my K-10’s but crampons would not have been overkill.. firm trail in between the peaks.. and again, a lot of ice above the intersection of Dicey’s Mill.. be careful up high on both of these peaks.. descending Dicey’s Mill I switched back over to Hillsounds.. just a bit lower the monorail disappeared and I barebooted the rest of the way.. the last water crossing was no issue walking across the log..50* on the return
