Last time I was up here, parking at St Marys Glacier TH was for a $5 fee.  We will coordinate a meetup for carpooling to minimize cars at the trailhead.

A winter ascent tune-up to check gear, clothing layering and climbing pace.  Its the standard route from the St Marys Glacier TH to the James Peak summit.  Here's the caltopo:
