TR Swift Creek Trail to Climb Mrkr 5 Mt. St. H.

Hey,

 

I was up there 12/20 all day. Skinned from Marble Mtn Sno Park to the extreme timberline. Pack about 5 feet deep. Rained throughout the trip. By the end of the day I could hear Swift Creek running under the snow between climb markers 3 and 4. The snow had the consistency of wet concrete and just about as forgiving. Temp never got below 45 degrees.

 

Cheers.

I went up on 12/26 via June Lake, and the snow was awesome and temps were definately freezing as it has snowed hard everyday since then. Going up tomorrow, maybe to reach the summit with an awesome ski down, avys permitting. I hope somebody has broke a trail through all of that fresh powder by then.
