We did this trip as a water caching expedition for an upcoming adventure. Never even thought there would be SNOW! I slipped, I slid, I fell, I screamed and laugh so hard on this route it was a hoot! Beautiful area, nice adventure, incredible colors--- can't wait to be back on this trail in June.

Crampons are a marvelous invention and it would have been nice to have had some for this route. Hoppy Easter!
