- Snow on trail
The parking lot at the summer trailhead is no longer accessible, and "no parking" signs line both sides of the Alpental road north of I90. Ended up parking on the ski lot.
Conditions were good for snowshoeing. Except for a few small stream crossings, the trail was covered in snow, but had been well broken -- at least up to the third switchback, which was as far as we got before having to turn around.
