 | Comments: |
Trail was super icy and our micro spikes barely got us through. I wished I had full crampons and an ice axe. Ridge between A and D was very tricky in some places with massive ice flows. We decided to descend the Polecat ski trail rather than temp fate going down the Wildcat Ridge Trail from D. |
