Experienced and sure footed hikers will easily manage this section. Less experienced hikers should approach it with care as the path is slippery and narrow at times.
The section should be avoided in case of heavy rain or melting snow as it includes two stream crossings.

This section of path is not for the faint hearted or those not with a good head for heights. In places the path traverses a steep slope and is become narrow is places. Chains have been attached to the rock in certain places to provide a hand hold. There are a few tricky river traverses which could be challenging after heavy rainfall or snow melt. At one point you need to accent/descend a ladder but it is well secured.
