If you are traveling to Camp Muir and plan to glissade down use caution. On your ascent, scope out paths without rocks, holes and other hazards. Also, be sure to check out this navigation sheet to help travel up and down in a whiteout. Every year parties get lost on the Muir Snowfield in a storm -- don't let this happen to you! Set a GPS track, have a map downloaded onto your phone ahead of time (there's limited cell service inside the park), and have a plan with your partners if you get separated.
