You can always show up at the Ranger Station and take a chance .. permits not claimed by 9:00 AM on the day of entry are given out via lottery

Went in via Nada / Snow Lakes on 6/26 and camped at south end of Snow. Hiked up to Viviane on 6/27 and had lunch at the outlet with 17 goats. Tons of snow up high, Viviane was 90% froze over but that was two weeks ago before all these high temps. Guarantee there is water running over the spillway dam on upper Snow. Not too deep, just don't stop and your feet shouldn't get wet.

awesome !!

thanks for the update gents. Anyone go in from Snow Lakes this past weekend?
-
other that the crew that hit the South Route on Colchuck this weekend, any updates from the Snow Lake or Colchuck Lake/Aasgard Pass approaches? thanks
-
Curious as to any new updates on the snow pack. I realize it is still late April and a spring "dump" could come at anytime .. however I'm wondering what the snow pack looks like @ Colchuck and Asgard compared to an "average" year?

Valdez ... I have a custom that Mr Rackliff did for me several years ago Thank You Mr Rackliff I've been able to easily go 3 nights out (spring/summer & fall) with room to spare. I've carried a full AT setup (boots locked into bindings), bivy gear, climbing rope, split the rack with partners and still have the extra room of the extension sleeve available if needed. Properly stuffed & loaded, it carried surprising well, however I think doing this with the standard waist belt would suck and Randy would be the first to tell you. If you felt that you needed to stiffen it up a bit, a plastic frame sheet can easily be sandwiched inside the bi-fold back pad.

if my male climbing partner pulls out this "kit"..
wdietsch replied to genepires's topic in Climber's Board
Well, given that the kit comes with wet wipes for apres screw clean-up, I'd wager the cracks are probably pretty skanky. You know, lots of moss and shit... Bloody Marys tonight!!! It's Halloween, ya know! that's some funny shit Sobo -
What would Sarah do ??

tons of places around Rimrock Lake and the South Fork of the Tieton River. Drive up the pass to the east end of Tieton River Road .. cross the bridge .. hang the first right and drive up along the Tieton River and you'll have your choice of numerous sites. Deeper into the woods, further from the highway, you probably start running into more hunting parties.
