- Snow on trail
We did an icicle ridge to 4th of July Trail traverse. We hit snow 2000' above the trailhead and stayed in snow until we'd dropped back below 4000' AGL. Don't forget your snowshoes and ski-poles. It's a very pleasant trip, but we estimate almost 7000' of gain and 14 miles. The snow in the 4th of July creek drainage is heavy and slushy - total slop. The snow along the ridge top is pretty good.
