Squire Creek Pass via Eight-mile Trail — Saturday, May. 23, 2020

Got on trail at 9 am with one other car in parking area. Passed that couple on the way up and hit snowline shortly after the Three o'clock Rock, about an hour into the hike. Lost the trail above snow line shortly after crossing first snow field and turned back after some wandering (no tracks to follow). Snow melting in places so may be able to follow trail more easily soon, else plan for orienteering skills (prior on the trail would also help). Beautiful place! Microspikes and gaiters recommended.
