stoked Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Does anyone know of what the Ruth Creek crossing is like? I crossed on a fallen tree in 2006. It's unlikely to be still there. Anyone got any beta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I'm not sure which crossing you're talking about... at the end of the (summer) driveable road (to get to second half of road/trail), or at the end of the trail/just before entering the cirque (to get to Price Lake/Nooksack Ridge)? At the end of the road, last winter there was a log jam immediately down the trail from the parking lot. Gets you onto a big sand bar, then (sometimes requires) another log jam to cross a braid that shows up in high water. Overall, chill. Last time I was up the trial, I saw some flagging right at the wilderness boundary sign (recently smashed by a snag and (I think) put back up) that (I think) marked a route to a snag across the Nooksack. But I can't remember that part. Know I saw some flagging. But that's only if you're trying to cross the Nooksack to get to Price Lake et al.
