Subnivian Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Is it still frozen? Is the traverse still doable or desirable from S to N if it isn't? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordop Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Good to go. Take some barbituates for the Black Tusk trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulB Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) I've crossed the Neve twice in early May, both times in years with much less of a snowpack than we currently have. On both trips the lake was frozen and passabale, but in many places had a layer of unavoidable slush that would rush into your boots when you hit a deeper than expected pocket. Shouldn't be quite at that point yet this year. I'd recommend going north to south. Skiing out from Elfin lakes is much more pleasant than going down the Garibaldi Lake trail at this (or any) time of the year.
