 | Comments: |
The first approx 1.5 miles were dry. Difficult climbing steep, snowy switchbacks adjacent to cascades. Snow bridges collapsing. Snow depths 4-6' above the cascades. Deep postholes. Beautiful day but we turned back about 0.3 miles from Nancy Pond. Will go back in August when the snow melts. : ) |
