Geez. More snow! No sub-alpine meadows here.

They aren’t just going to have late access, they aren’t going to plow the highest part of the road into Mt. Baker national recreation Area at all this summer. It is a bit of a bummer. There is actually only one trail completely free of snow. It is along the river by camp. Everything else has thinning ice bridges (drifts that are being undercut by fast flowing streams), avalanche tailings (big piles of snow with boulders and whole trees) or is just under many feet of icy snow. Yikes. Not my idea of a good time. We will try one more time tomorrow to see if we can get far enough for some good views of the local mountains.
