4/21/2007 Posted On: 4/21/2007 By: Brad Info: Hiked to 10645' today. The trail was completely snow free until the spur at No Name Creek. From there to Barr Camp it was sporadic; snow was very well packed too. From Barr Camp to 10645' (about 3/4 mile past Barr Camp) the trail was completely covered in snow and we post holed several times. You can tell the traffic has been stopping at Barr Camp. | ||||
4/11/2007 Posted On: 4/11/2007 By: Brad Info: My wife and I hiked up to just past the cutoff for the incline on the 1st of April and the trail was snow-free to that point (about 3.5 miles into the trail - approx. 9000'). I will update again as we should head back up a portion this weekend. | ||||
5/8/2005 Posted On: 5/8/2005 By: sisyphus Info: May 4, 2005: The Barr Trailhead is open, but then again, it's nearly always accessible. Be careful parking here, though. The lot fills up quickly, and the people who run the Cog RR are really anal about parking, even when the Cog isn't running. They will tow you. If the main lot is full, your best bet will be to park way down the hill on Hydro street near some houses. If that area is full, you might have to park way down in Manitou. |
