Summit Lake

As of Nov.1 There is barely a foot of snow down by the road but it get's better as you go up in elevation. You are looking at about 2 to 2 1/2 feet below the Tit. Careful for the rocks there is still no base. The snow gets to around the 3 1/2 to 4 foot depth behind the Tit and and on the glacier. The powder is excellent back there and with no base longtracks with deep paddles are strongly recommended. Short track riders bring your skills. One of the riders in our group set off an avalanche dropping off the back side of the Tit and we saw several others so stay alert and ride safe.
