Mount Ellinor — Friday, Dec. 27, 2024

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal
Turn around point!

Hiked on Friday.  We parked at the lower trailhead.  Some snow, but someone had plowed a good portion.  An AWD or 4x4 recommended.  The first mile and a half is ok without snowshoes, but a a little above where the upper trailhead meets the lower trail, the snow began to get deeper.  We turned around at about 2 1/2 mark from the lower trailhead.  There were two gentlemen with snowshoes and they continued.  If you’re not experience, turn around once the snow starts to get deeper about 1/4 mile after the two trails junction.
