| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Major thing: someone has put a DEEP water bar diagonally across the road into the parking lot. If you have a car with low clearance, you might not want to try it! You can park down the road at the winter parking lot if you think you might not make it. If you try it, hit as straight on as possible. We saw one car have to be pushed out of it this morning. |

Couple blow downs that could use a saw. |

|
| Bugs: |
Black Flies were pretty annoying in a few places, but not bad at the summit. Would have used bug spray if it hadn't been so hot as to sweat it off in 5 minutes. |

| Comments: |
Be really sure you can get through that water bar before you drive into it. I hope everyone who made it in to the parking lot today made it out okay! It's crazy! |
