Details
Route was largely wind blown. Didn't put on microspikes until final drop just before Grizzly but left them on for the return trip which made dropping back down to Loveland Pass quicker/easier. Lots of wind cornices on the leeward sides of the ridges but easily avoidable by sticking either to the ridge top or slightly to the windward side. Brought snowshoes but never took them off my pack (left the extra weight on so as not to get blown away!)
