Other Considerations
On Trail: The trip is
mainly on improved trail in reasonable condition. Any portion of the
trip not on trail is easy 'like trail' conditions.
Off Trail: Below
timberline (about 11,600 feet in Colorado), the trip may involve
bushwhacking or travel through forested terrain. Above timberline, the
trip may cross open tundra or involve Class 2 hiking under the Yosemite
Decimal System: i.e., moving on or around small boulders where the use
of hands may be used, but only to maintain balance. No special hiking or
climbing skills are required. Exposure is usually minimal or
nonexistent.
Scrambling: The trip involves Class 3
climbing: i.e., climbing that is relatively easy with plentiful
handholds. Although a rope is rarely required, Class 3 climbing may be
intimidating for less experienced mountaineers. Always consider bringing
and wearing a climbing helmet to ensure your own safety. A fall on a
Class 3 route usually results in a minor injury, but can on occasion
result in serious injury or death.
Semi-technical: The
trip involves Class 4 climbing: i.e., within the realm of technical
rock climbing, but with relatively plentiful handholds. Some people will
desire a rope, but usually just for protection on the descent.
Participants must wear climbing helmets. A fall without the protection
of a rope on a Class 4 route usually results in serious injury or death.
