length of season

Posted: Mon, 03/01/2010 - 13:25

Hi all -

I was planning a trip (my first) out to Hyalite later in March and was beginning to wonder about how long the season lasts out there.  I understand that ice can last though the end of March, but I was beginning to become concerned that this year might be atypical.  Obviously no one can predict 3 weeks into the future, but can anyone give me an idea of how late into March you can climb based on past years?

 

Thanks!

Hello Horsesausage,

The FS closes vehicle access on 31 March making the trek quite a bit longer. Shady climbs last until mid-April and many "seldom seens" make an appearance. Lots of good fun.

Thanks for coming to visit.
