Comments: Trail up South Loop was easy, microspikes not necessary there. Once we hit the drop-in spot, we ended up adding a few rappels to feel safer to get to the optional rappels. There were lots of ice formations, and the optional rappels were great. The first actual rappel has a new set of chain anchors 30-40 feet below the tree setup, and from there, probably close to 220' rappel to the 2nd anchor. Ice was melting a bit, so we did have some falling ice while setting up the second rappel.
