Bead Lake — Friday, Dec. 20, 2024

Eastern Washington > Selkirk Range

Icy! Some snow on the trail but the bigger issue is the obvious freeze/thaw cycle that’s been happening. The trail required micro spikes to give any level of stability. There were sections that were worse than others, but they’re close enough together that I needed to keep my spikes on the whole time. Big tree down 1.25 miles from the trailhead but it wasn’t too bad to get over. Road to the trailhead and parking lot were moderately sketchy; I wouldn’t trust them for much longer.
