This will be a good day, with navigational challenges, side-hiling, bushwhacking, scrambling and all out type II fun.   On top of that it is unknown how much snow has fallen and stuck up there.

It is important in the shoulder season to be prepare to stay overnight in the event of an accident.  Having a bivy, warm cloths and food for a night is imperative. 

This trip is subject to cancellation due to road conditions and if weather dictates it so.
