Opted to leave the snowshoes in the car. And it paid off. We visited the falls and proceeded to get to work. We walked across the grassfields, bushwhacked up through the trees. We encountered lingering snow patches in the trees. Up high the summit had some snow but it was not enough for us to break out microspikes. Descended a slightly different route, ending on a horse trail which we followed back to Eagle Lake Parking.
