  1. Trip: Olympics - Bailey Range Date: 7/6/2012 Trip Report: Hiked the Baileys High Divide -> Low Divide 6.6.2012-6.9.2012 Tons of snow but the route is passable. Fantastic weather. Routefinding in the snow was the biggest problem; expect slow going. High Divide-> Catwalk: 80% snow cover. Trail visible in a few spots; make sure to find it before rounding Cat Peak. Catwalk is nearly snowless. Boston Charlie camp is currently a lake. Boston Charlie-> Cream Lake. 40% snow cover. Almost normal route conditions on the south-facing slope. The usually-nasty descent to Cream Lake could be made much more pleasant by descending one of the snow-covered river gullies and ascending the relatively brush free valley to the lake from the meadow below. Cream Lake-> Lone Tree Pass. 90% snow cover. River to Cream lake running very high make sure to stay on east (left) side ascending to Mt. Ferry. Lone Tree Pass-> Elwah Snowfinger. 100% snow cover. Snowfinger larger than usual. Can descend the snowfinger to ~1mile above Elwah river trail but beware very high river. Have fun and wear sunscreen! Gear Notes: Ice axe and crampons required. No ropes.
