On Mothers day two of us got a bright and early start (noon) from the Narada falls parking lot and postholed up the 250' of deep spuds to the reflection lake road. We assumed it would be snow covered but it was not and walked about a half mile to the lake before we headed to the saddle. We were just out for the views as the snow was extremely exothermic and deep. So much for north facing skiing:)
