Trailhad...Longs Peak
Route...Longs Peak Trail to Crater Lake Trail to Loft Couloir to SE Longs to Meeker to Meeker Ridge down Iron Gates
Notes...
-No snowshoes needed
-Snow in the Loft is firm
-Crux is tricky...you have 2 options to get through the cliff band
*20' ice section...started to climb this, but didn't feel comfortable with a dull axe and no ice tool
*tricky traverse around a ledge system that gets you to the upper snowfield...I would not advise this option in it's current conditions
-knife edge between Meeker and Meeker Ridge is dry
-Iron Gates route is basically dry
