Summit Horn Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Has anyone ever been on Obstr Point Road in May? I am thinking about snowshoeing it as far in as possible since I know its full of beautiful views and the Olys are supposed to have good weather this weekend.

Drederek Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Not much snow left below 4k in the SE Olympics on monday. Where is this road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJA Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Obstruction Point Road leaves the Hurricane Ridge Road at the edge of the parking lot before reaching Hurricane Ridge Lodge itself. The road is to the south (if I'm remembering correctly). Steeple Rock is the first prominent feature you'll see. Snow is where you find it. And the views can be awesome.

silence Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 oh btw: the ranger at onp wic said early olympus climbers faced huge washout at hoh creek just beyond oly ranger station on the hoh river trail -- causing way more difficult conditions than typical avalanche chute just b-4 glacier meadows -- trail crews are/will be working on it.
