Garibaldi Lake Frozen????

[SqueelLikeAPig]

 

I was thinking about doing the Garibaldi Neve Traverse in the next few weeks. Anyone know if the lake is still frozen and crossable?

I might have read on bivouac.com that its getting a bit mushy at one end.

I crossed the Neve this weekend, it was excellent!!!!

 

Travelling conditions were fantastic, except for the lake, which has a good layer of slush at the north end. We were crossing late in the afternoon, and ended up punching through the slop in a few spots and getting wet feet. It's probably OK early in the day, but I suspect that in a couple of weeks it'll be impassable. Travelling along the western shore would be possible, but very inconvenient.
