Be Aware Of
Water on trail
Snow on trail
Forest service road is passable to just below the trailhead parking lot, with only a couple areas of 8" deep snow in the last 1/2 mile. Need high-ground clearance vehicle to get all the way to the TH. Trail is clear of snow for the first 1/2 mile, then patchy snow. Deep snow beyond the first mile. I put on snowshoes where the trail reaches the creek and was glad to have them. Creek was beautiful, running full and fast. Talapus lake quiet and almost completely covered in snow and ice.
