The glacier itself is pretty low angle, though sure to be somewhat icy at this time of year. I would bet there's not much snow left on the remainder, at least if you're heading up the saddle between Deception and the Needles. You could always try those instep crampons-- I just picked up a pair, pretty cheap and lighter than the full set, though I haven't tried them out yet.

Norman,

 

Thanks. I do have a set of instep crampons. Maybe I'll bring them along this weekend. So far I've only used them on Mt. Si early season, but they worked quite well. Without them I would surely have perished. [big Grin]

 

Krazy1,

 

I'll defend you for now, but as soon as that cast comes off, you're on your own. [Wink]

 

Drew
