| Comments: |
Greeley Pond Trail is largely snow-free and bare-bootable, but the climb up to East Osceola is very icy. I managed to get to the summit with Trail Crampons, but used full crampons on the descent and was very glad to have them. Saw lots of people (6) climbing up as I was descending. If I had to do this climb over again, I'd probably bring an ice axe. |
