What are thoughts around summiting with Kahtoola Micro Spikes and Mountain Axe? Safe or suicide mission? Heading up in couple weeks, I have axe and crampons whereas friend has axe and micro-spikes. Friend has solid hiking and backcountry snowboarding/hiking experience. Doesn't want to buy crampons at this point if not necessary. I have Kahtoolas as well and find them to be bomber. Welcome your 2 cents..
