Howdy. I am planning on going to the mountain next weekend bymyself for an overnighter, and have never been there before. I have been reading the forum and the most useful advice ive found thus far is the need for crampons (which i just ordered.)
I have a couple questions for anyone willing to advise:
Any laws or rules on overnight small campfires? ( I always cover my tracks, do not destroy scenery)
Any laws on carrying a firearm? ( I dont want to encounter any problems, and am always safe)
Water supply? Should I carry in a gallon in addition to my full canteens?
What is the Tram exactly? What is the best trail to just climb up for a day, camp below summit, summit next morning, and climb back down?
Where do you park your car and not risk being tampered?
This will be my first time trying to summit, and I will be solo. I have mountaineering experience from the military, and am confident, but overconfidence is the first mistake. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I will post my packing list for anyone that is interested in seeing and offering advice. Thanks alot guys, great forum!!
