highclimb Posted April 4, 2002 Posted April 4, 2002 how much of this is melted out..if any? any information on it? thanks, Aidan Quote
goatboy Posted April 5, 2002 Posted April 5, 2002 As of Tuesday, it's patchy and melting out pretty fast for the lower half or so. Still snowy up high, however. Questionable for snowmobiles pretty soon due to downed trees across road and diminishing snowpack. - steve Quote
rayborbon Posted April 5, 2002 Posted April 5, 2002 I would not take a snowmobile. The skids would get trashed.. Lots of trees and rocks is right.. Quote
Sean_Halling Posted April 5, 2002 Posted April 5, 2002 Came down it yesterday afternoon. First mile is mostly melted out with patches of snow. The rest was all slushy, post-holing fun! MikeA didn't seem to have any fun coming down it on his skiis. I used snowshoes and I was still sinking through. Quote
glacier_dup1 Posted April 11, 2002 Posted April 11, 2002 Just bringing this one back up - how's current road/rock conditions at Icicle? Quote
rayborbon Posted April 11, 2002 Posted April 11, 2002 Road appeared more gravel did not go up it. Still closed as of Sunday. Lots of dry rock- Pearly gates is in...... Quote
mikeadam Posted April 29, 2002 Posted April 29, 2002 Road was open on Saturday, but there was deadfall across the road just short of the eightmile turnoff point. It would be driveable all the way with a 4x4 if the logs are cleared. Quote
mikeadam Posted April 29, 2002 Posted April 29, 2002 That would probably work, but it was easy to just boot the last mile and there was 14 inches of new snow so we could skin from just past the deadfall. On the way out it was mostly melted out except for right at the trailhead. Quote
