| Comments: |
Took Butler Lodge and LT north up the ladders to the Forehead. Nobody had been up the LT and a few spots along the ladders are pretty exposed right now due to ice on slab exits. ~8-12†up high but I’m sure that will consolidate w/ this warm-up. Maple Ridge had a few stray boot paths but mostly easy to follow and Frost trail is now also broken out a bit |
