It is still very snow-covered all the way to the top with a pretty stable cornice (see picture) at the very end. You can get within 1 mile of the summer 2WD trailhead but there are two last snow drifts and two large trees still blocking the road. Also the open field leading up to the slopes has a few spots with flowing water underneath so be careful where you step. Snowshoes were very helpful about 1/2 mile after the 4WD trailhead as was an ice ax to get across the cornice. |
