Hi All, we just came down from Blue Sky Lake. New Army pass is ok without ice ax or micro spikes. Three easy class 3 moves at the top, with real good handholds.
Army Pass had a snowfield at the top of the pass over the trail. We do not have any snow or ice skills. That patch was about 20ft long with a 40ft near vertical rock slide into mid air.
Awesome 4 days in the mountains from Horseshoe Medows to Blue Sky Lake no micro spikes or ice ax needed.
