July 1, 2006, Snow Dome, Mt. Hood

Spent a great day on the north side today. The snow was great and the cool breeze made it a pleasant hike and skin. Theres  enough snow to ski all the way out to the trail in a number of spots, I followed another group down the bowl and gully skiers left and on the hike out saw that the exit gully for what I think is Langille bowls (where the waterfall is once it melts out) is completely covered down to where the trail crosses.

Oh yeah, the wood bridge isn't in place yet but the creek has good snow bridge coverage.

Today we had to hike a few extra miles as a USFS crew was still clearing the downed trees off the road. For now it's closed at inspiration pt. the good news is they thought they would get done today and so the road should be open tomorrow.
