Beautiful trail with a wide variety of obstacles. Past Governor Basin, it becomes more technical. Overall, the trail was a ton of fun and the views were immaculate. At the very end, it became a bit dicey due to snow and ice accumulation.

Once past the vault toilet, the trail gets steeper and rockier. A couple of 12 inch ledges to climb and a couple of sharp and eroded switchbacks.
