Beautiful day on the ridge! Trail is in good condition, however there are 7 snowfields fields to cross. One of them is sketchy. We went all the way to Camp Kiser. We did not use spikes, but definitely relied on poles for the snow fields. Goat lake is not melted out yet. We did have a heard of goats who were on edge, they had babies with them.
