This was a LOOOOOOOOONG hike! By starting at the Black Mountain trailhead, and hiking to the summit of Black Mountain, Erebus Mountain and Sleeping Beauty, we covered over 20 miles - a not-insignificant chunk of which was trudging through deep, melting snow as the conditions earlier in the hike had suggested we did not need to bring snowshoes.

Obstacles

blowdowns, snow on route
