- Blowdowns
- Snow on trail
The road to the Phelps Creek trailhead is open, but looks like it just got snow-free recently. There are some water gullys in the road right where your tires want to be. My sedan straddled them without too much difficulty, but you have to be careful where you choose to place the tires. Maybe soon the road will be graded?
The trail has several pesky blowdowns in the first 1500' vertical. Shortly before the basin below Carne Mtn, the snow is solid and we lost the trail.
While we were in the area, we tucked in ""Chilly"" peak, point 7920 1.4 miles NE. The 59er Diner closes at 8pm. We got there at 8:57 hoping to get in but had to drive home empty.
