Fletcher Canyon — Thursday, Mar. 18, 2021

Olympic Peninsula > Pacific Coast

A detailed report was posted two days ago, so I'm just posting to supplement since we went farther the previous poster. Mud was surprisingly not an issue, but all of the log climbs and root scrambles are very slick in the rain. Where the trail reaches thick brush (apparently right before a large log crossing around the 2 mile mark), a snowfield is covering the trail, presumably as far as the river. Footprints heading into the snowfield are visible, and we had spikes on hand, but we really didn't feel like struggling through the brush in the snow. From where we stopped, the waterfall is visible, and we felt satisfied with what we completed of the trail. Trail was snow-free until that point.

Did you find this trip report helpful?

Thanks for going further than I did and getting the more complete current conditions out there!
