JM went hiking August 24, 2014 10 miles 3,500 feet gained
Up from McGee Creek TH, pretty nice trail on a steady climb up through the trees. Quieter trail head than Top Spur, but about 0.5 mile further each way. Up to the shelter then "normal way", on up to the end of the ridge to an "in your face" view of the Glisan Glacier and the Sandy Glacier and caves. Returned to shelter and descended the "climbers trail". Cuts off about 1.3 miles of trail. Lots of hikers up there today, great temps. Few flowers remaining.
