The bushwack is a five minute walk down the bike path from the basin. The trail is right behind a hemlock and a big rock so don't miss it. Trail well packed down to Liberty Springs Campsite. Had to break trail though drifts and such past that point. Soft snow drifts were bad in the col which made for some slow going. My trail should help anyone doing this in the next few days. Snowshoes all day long because of soft snow. Great 100% views today. |
