bstach Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 I am wanting to do an overnight hike this weekend- thinking about Garibaldi Lake/Taylor Meadows campsite, w Panorama Ridge as the goal. Anyone been up there lately that can provide info on the snow level, how much snow there is at the lake and above? Pics would be cool, too. I would also appreciate other suggestions if you think another destination would have better conditions (keep it within SW BC though). Thanks Quote
murraysovereign Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 According to the June 6 trail report from BC Parks, the trail is snow-covered from the 6km point (Taylor Meadows Junction, just beyond the Barrier). Expect the Taylor campsites and Panorama Ridge to be well covered, with the possible exception of some south-facing stuff. For reference, they report 2m of snow at Elfin Lakes, which is at a similar elevation to Taylor Meadows, and Panorama Ridge is a few hundred meters higher than that. Due to our prolonged winter and cool spring, the alpine hiking/camping/backpacking areas are still pretty well buried just about everywhere, I would bet. Quote
