Re: Onion valley to Horseshoe meadows next week


 

开云体育

I wouldn't worry too much about the water crossing.

I hiked the route about a month earlier in a fairly heavy snow year with an early melt and didn't have problems with these crossing. Tyndall was the hardest but no big problem. They were good practice to prepare for the major crossing further north.

I looked at the current FarOut comments for these crossing and none mentioned crossing difficulties.

You may have missed Rock Creek depending upon your route.

This doesn't account for local heavy rain activity.

All,

I am hiking Onion valley to Horseshoe meadows starting next Monday. I will go back and re-read Inga's section hike (in the opposite direction).? In the?meantime, what are the things I should watch out for?

There is another heat wave till this Friday, so I expect the streams to be full, so I am concerned.?

I am starting here:?

I have to cross Bubbs Creek (twice), Tyndall Creek, Wallace Creek, Wright Creek, Bullfrog lake outlet and of course, Whitney Creek (I vividly remember crossing this during HST). (Am I missing?a crossing)?

Any guidance would be appreciated.
