Anyone been around Glacier or Taft Point in the last week know if there's much snow on the south rim? Mainly the trail to Taft Point or just in general.
I thought I was going to need this for some winter stuff I had planned, but didn't work out.
It's brand new, with storage sack and stuff sack. Retails is like 600 something, can be found on sale around 500, asking $350 shipped (i'm not profiting.)
I'm heading to Canada to climb Mt Forbes. It's a long way in for wearing mountaineering boots and I don't own approach shoes. We also have to cross a river and need something to protect our feet.
