Lewis River Conditions?

 Has anyone been out to Lewis River recently? If so, how's the blowdown and snow pack? The snow appears to be melting quickly thanks to this warm weather. I'm hoping to hit it next weekend but will wait if there is likely to be much snow.

Thanks,

Greg

Gifford Pinchot NF current conditions

After what was looking to be an early season on Mount St Helens is turning out to be otherwise.  Two weeks ago - from April 5th 2010 - the snow pack at the June Lake Snotel site was only 46 inches.  The elevation there is 3,440 feet.  As of April 6, 2010 snow depth is now 111 inches.

Current Forest Road conditions in Gifford Pinchot National Forest indicate that Road 83 is closed at the junction with Road 8303, the road to Ape Cave.  Seasonal snow plowing ended at the beginning of April for the season. 

Follow the links above to monitor snow depth and road conditions in the Gifford Pinchot.

 

Current Condition: Buxton (B-V trail) up Hares Canyon to Mtb Zone Loop and back

 

1/25/2010: Rode from Buxton trailhead (no cost for day use) on Banks-Vernonia Linear Trail to Stub Stewart State Park and up on Hares Canyon to Hilltop and then over to Mtb Zone access and the single track loop.  This is about 13 mile ride... roughly 1/3 paved, 1/3 shared-use (wide dirt trail), 1/3 single track (natural surface).

Riding Buxton up Hares, then mtb single track loop and back is an Intermediate level ride (about 13 miles).  If starting at Hilltop and riding just the mtb single track loop (back to Hilltop) would be a Beginner level ride (about 4 miles).
