goatboy Posted January 24, 2001 Posted January 24, 2001 I'm considering a trip to Lolo Pass this weekend and wanted to know if anyone had any information regarding recent ice conditions in Blodgett Canyon, Montana (especially Blodgett Falls). I realize most conversation on this site centers around Washington State, but thought I'd ask if anyone knew anything about conditions in the "Inland Northwest." Thanks very much for any responses.

goatboy Posted January 24, 2001 Author Posted January 24, 2001 Wow, word gets out quickly through the climbing grapevine . . . And thanks very much for the rapid response! Yes, I am part of the WSU Alpine Club. Some of our folks (probably just a couple, if any) MAY be heading to the Slab area on Saturday, though it sounds like the main falls is in poor condition. I don't think I'll go, however, as I've climbed on the Slabs before and was hoping to have a go at Blodgett Falls. Maybe I'll just go skiing....or head to the hot springs instead. Quote
chriss Posted January 25, 2001 Posted January 25, 2001 Was in Blodgett Sat (20th). Swan Slabs is in great shape. Blodgett Falls however is on its way out. It is South facing and is getting to much sun. Daytime temps have been in the 30s and sometimes low 40s. Night time still below freezing though. Heard from a friend that the WSU alpine club might be there this weekend. Is than you? chris Quote
