[pct-l] Ice axe KM to Trail Pass?

[ned at mountaineducation.org]

No need for ice axes and spikes between KM and Horseshoe Meadows trailheads. 
Your snow level may be (for late June) 10,500, but there are no serious snow 
traverses that would require either. (All based on our May-July trip last 
year from KM to the MTR).
