[pct-l] Palisades Glacier Amusing Input



I know that I appreciate a rope on the ascent/descent on the upper portion
of Sawtooth Pass.  It all depends on the snow conditions.  It's short &
steep, and reasonably protectable in early season.   In mid- to late season,
it probably becomes an ice chute.  That's when I stop being entertained and
go somewhere else.  This year it may be traversable well into July??? who
knows???
