layton Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 Hi. I just got back from a non-climbing road trip down to check out schools. I always feel like I missed out on the great climbing when I go away (even if it was a climbing trip!!!). All I know is when I left last thursday, it was hot as hell and getting hotter! For anyone who's been up on the mountains recently, how's the snow? Where's it at now? Is Baker still in prime condition, and how's the Stuart Glacier Coulior holdin' up? What about B.C.? Joffre, James Turner, road access and the like. Yeah, I've read all the recent TR's. Just startin' a new topic to troll for some specific info. Hope ya'll got some good ones in! I had a nice spell this spring, but it went downhill recently. I need to work to make some bucks, but if it won't last long out there, I'd like to know. Thanks, Mike Quote
salbrecher Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 Word from a friend who just came back from Pinecone lake in southern B.C. is that the snow line is at 4500ft, lower on north facing slopes. Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 Joffre is an easy walk in the one side in winter or summer... Cool mountain. I wonder if those cornices fell... yet.... Quote
Dru Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 Snowline is near 7000 feet in Lillooet and 3500 feet in Chilliwack. With a north-south gradient like that there must still be snow on the ground in downtown Seattle. Quote
