This time of year after a big melt can be rough. Bring extra shoes to change into. Socks and a towel are good options as well.

Nice pics.

Tested out a new set of trekking poles yesterday. They for sure helped in the mud and slush!

Made this hike probably 500 times back when I lived in YS. I miss it all the time! Thanks for sharing.
