| Comments: |
I bushwhacked in open woods up the east slope of terrible. The highpoint is recognized. I followed the ridge to the western subpeak and descended to the col in open woods. I bushwhacked up the south slope to the recognized highpoint of the north peak. I returned to the col and followed roads down the drainage. Eventually, I had to begin bushwhacking and was sure to avoid houses as I reached the road.
Snow started as small patches and soon became unavoidable, and required snowshoes, despite lots of bare spots. Higher up on Terrible snow cover was complete. Rotten spring snow made for slow going in places. The south facing slope of the north peak was snow-free. |
