| Comments: |
Significant flooding during thaw on Boulder Loop, moving water 6-10 inches deep, some spots 1ft+ but avoidable. Main trail hard-packed slush/ice above 1200ft. Clear of ice up top. Recommend microspikes on ascent if using main trail. Boulder Loop easier, but heavy flooding. Will see some glissading action if descending via main ;) |
