I share Peter's concern. Snow-covered talus is super-dangerous so I'd advise avoiding any of the proposed XC routes that include non-trivial stretches of talus. It would be very easy to break an ankle

Hi John, Thanks for the info.? So very nice to see you back and interacting.? Praying there were no long term effects from your incident. Best,John Powell

Thank you, John! Those files helped me many times over the years ! Karina Bezkrovnaia

Lange, I forgot about Duck tape! I’m fine with topo map and routes instead of trail - comes with ever growing desire of solitude and endless wonderings. Not fine with subjecting me to unknown

Lots of beating around the bush. This year it will be extremely dangerous. This bridge outage is not unexpected I would not be supprized to see more bridges taken out in the melt. Experienced

Ethan - thanks for creating that first map. I've tried to document all the information into a single map including alternatives.? I'll continue to keep this updated as new developments and other
