Glacier NP question
Posted: Sat May 07, 2011 5:06 am
Planning for my annual Sept visit to Glacier and had a few ?'s re: some cross country routes.
1. Is it possible to attain Nahsukin area from Grace lake ( with a large pack)?
2. From Jefferson Pass Edwards explains in his book about folks who dropped down to Francis from the valley between the guardhouse and porcupine ridge, but says it was super steep and scary , anyone done this?
3. Is the Norris traverse pretty intuiative or does it require finding just the right goat trails?
4. Is Iceberg Notch going to be scary to my guests who may not be used to off trail hiking?
