 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Parking in the Highland Center lot costs $10. Just walk in (without traction) and pay at the desk. They take credit card. I saw many people parked alongside the road and they did not seem the worse for it. |
|
 | Surface Conditions: |
Snow - Packed Powder/Loose Granular |
|
 | Recommended Equipment: |
Light Traction |
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
This one was weird. The wide stream near the bottom looked as if it had frozen solid and then thawed on the top. It WAS possible to get your feet wet if you weren't careful. Other than that, water crossings were easily crossed by walking carefully across narrow ice. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
One downed tree just below the top with a clear-ish path to walk around. But it was right near the "delicate plants" sign so maybe that's still not great. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
I saw many happy puppers, including one very small one. |
|
 | Bugs: |
|
|
 | Lost and Found: |
There was a patterned scarf placed on the wooden marker where the Mt. Willey Trail splits from the Avalon Trail. |
