The trail is currently broken out to a crossing about 100’ downstream of the normal one. It was doable rock hopping(with snowshoes on). Would be concerning for some. |

One or two blowdowns, broke a herd path around one. Anything to avoid crawling under. |

 | Comments: |
Trail broken out until around 3500’. Deep drifts(3’+) intermittently from there. Our own trail was partially drifted within a couple hours. The broken path deviates from the actual trail in a few locations as it leaves the river. Ok to follow the incorrect path as it ultimately meeets up with the trail again. Tough hike, steep and deep on a cold day. Bluebird sky and views forever made it all worthwhile. Could wear snowshoes all the way from/to the car but definitely will need them up high. |
