MegaMan Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 I'm taking a few friends up South Sister this coming weekend from the Devil's Lake TH, I've done it three times before but never this early in the year. I was curious if anyone could report on what I could expect in the way of snow cover for the weekend of the 26th of June. Quote
Illini Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 I was there on 6/20. I went in and from green lakes trail head. The trail is all snow 1-2 miles from the trail head. After spending the night at the lake, we needed crampon untill about 6:30 am. So it depends on the weather and when you intend to start. After 6:30 it was a mushy slog, and would have been sooner if the slope catched the sun sooner. Only area without snow was the crest along the edge of the Layman (sp?) glacier. An axe is good if for nothing else glissading back down Quote
