The Flash Mob at the Summit
Care and attention will be needed on this hike due to deep snow (requiring snow shoes through the saddle) and short sections with icy conditions on a reasonably good winter time trail. The use of micro spikes, trekking poles and snow shoes are highly recommended for this hike.
