this hike is awesome! definately some sketchy spots tho, and an ice axe would've proved more than helpful. hiked it pre-season (fall) and loved it. hiking and snowboarding, what more could one ask for?! LOVE THE VIEWS!!! sketchy rocks somewhat crumbly yet solid. watch your step and hand/footholds... climb wise and DON'T GO ALONE!!!
