A great day to hike Cube. Trail is well packed though lumpy in spots and even some exposed leaves in lower elevations. Water crossing was no issue. Spikes car to car, but if the snow softens I would suggest a least bringing snowshoes. Ours took a free ride today. I enjoyed this approach, it wanders through some awesome mixed hardwoods and occasional hemlock groves. Only the southern approach left to redline the mountain. |
