RE: Hiking up to Rae Glacier

in #hikinglast year

I did this one in September and the weather was outstanding! I did make it to that ridge near the top area, but the trail turned into more of a scramble. Totally worth it, but a little above my comfort zone.

Sort:  

We went about as far as the little waterfall in the cover image. As soon as hands become necessary and rocks start moving, it's no longer a hike. It's just about at the limit of a decent day trip, next year we might go camping down there to get in some more time.

For about the last 30 minutes of that hike I kept thinking that I ought to turn back, but kept it going anyway for some reason. Got an ever so slight toenail injury on the way down from that ridge.
