4wd road is clear of snow and minimal mud. Summer conditions (aka 0 snow) all the way to tree line. The big basin has 2-3 feet of snow still in it that even at 7:00am you would fall through - expect to post hole but it's not more than 75 total yards of a push. Micro spikes or snowshoes won't help - it's just caving in. Started at 430am, summitted at 8:00am. Easy hike down. Switchbacks up to the summit have pretty sporadic but serious patches of snow and ice crossing the trail. Great to glissade down, but tricky to hike up. Only boots are necessary, just be careful. Peak has some snow but nothing to worry about - great weather today to summit Huron! |
