The traverse over to Peak of the Clouds from Spread Eagle Peak was 90% dry with the remaining snow being of little difficulty to cross. We took a look down at Megan Lake thinking we'd make it a loop but found a report on Alltrails from three days ago stating miserable waist high postholing the last 1/2 mile to the lake. Looking down at the lake and its head wall seemed to confirm what Alltrails said so we instead made it a long and arduous out and back to and from the Gibson Creek trailhead (Spread Eagle east ridge). Garmin watch clocked 8.5 miles and 5500ft round trip FWIW. |
