Harding Ice Field hike
Started hike at the visitor center (get updates on trail conditions there). Walk paved trail 0.4 miles to trail head.
Trees and high shrubs to Marmot meadow, then high shrubs to about half way up the Cliffs. Tundra thereafter.
Trail is well maintained, lots of stone steps.
Great day, sunny, little wind, took a lot of photos.
Harding Ice Firld
Very challenging hike, 3100 feet elevation gain and lots of rocks, mud snow and streams to cross. But also very enjoyable. I feel pretty good being able to hike this at 66.
