ski_photomatt Posted June 11, 2004 Posted June 11, 2004 From Cascade Pass last Friday the snow line looked to be about the top of the boulder field. Can't say for certain though because we only saw it from a distance. Quote
Dustin_B Posted June 15, 2004 Author Posted June 15, 2004 Snowline is at the top of the boulder field as of Saturday, June 12. Eldo and Inspiration Glaciers are in good shape, very few gaps showing. 6 to 18 inches of new and windblown powder fell Saturday night. Would make for good skiing but hucking skis up that approach would be horrible. Camped on glacier at 7500 feet (thanks to someone for the snow walls) but didn't summit because of low visibility, wind (35-40 mph), and lots of new snow. It was winter-like conditions, except for it was above freezing (35 degrees). We were alone on the mountain though.... Quote
