Some tips to consider:Snow conditions may prevent the use of sleds. Bring a large pack.Chimney Pond campers-always bring snowshoes. Trails rarely broken out.Going to west or south side of Park? Park at Abol Bridge.
Trips above treeline:Microspikes are NOT crampons, and will limit your progress.Above treeline you need an ice axe; you can’t self-arrest with poles.Consider bringing the following:a beacon, probe, and shovel per persona 120-200’ rope for white out conditions
