Although for much of the trail the canyon floor is actually wider than it is up top, this particular spot is bit of tight squeeze. Making for a fun little adventure within an adventure. The rock is quite slippery, especially when it is in contact with ice cleats making the little scramble up and down it a bit tricky. My not very glamorous technique, was to first remove my gloves so that I could get a few good hand holds. Since, it was a nice day so I wasn't worried about the cold. Then I basically crawled up on my knees which worked a whole lot better than the people before me who kept trying to use their ice cleats on the rock. Having some experience rock climbing and knowing a few techniques helped as well.
