Some things to think about before The Wave.
We went Classic out-and-back from Wire Pass before heat builds starting at 6:25 AM. Cold start turned into warm sun by mid-morning. Route markers lined up well, still worth checking maps often.
Key considerations: Pack a dry layer.
Ratings: 5 overall, 5 difficulty, 4 scenery.
Still thinking about this one.
