12 miles of hiking • 3000' elevation gain •
Had planned to go to Pamelia Lake to Hunts Cove today but got waylaid by massive wind. The blow downs on the Hunts Cove trail covered the trail in so many places just at the beginning that we decided to backtrack and try Grizzly Peak instead. Grizzly Peak was the winner. There was debris about and some small blow downs but nothing like down at the lake. Hit snow about 5400 feet and there was probably 3-4 feet at the top. All compact, easy to walk on snow. Didn't need micro spikes, just had to be careful with stepping. Ended up being a great day. Had sites of Mt. Hood, Sisters, Three Fingered Jack, and the best view of Mt. Jefferson!
