There's still a foot of snow up here. Be prepared for that.

I was there on Saturday just to check things out. Not too much snow around. Lots of wet rock due to melt on top.

Interesting. This was Ringwood State Park on Saturday. Which is in the same basic area.
I guess the Powerlinez just bake in the sun all day.

A good portion of the powerlines does bake in the sun all day so I'm not surprised it doesn't look like the above photo. My guess is the Tower Wall will be largely dry with some seepage while other areas like the Good Book Wall may be soaked.

Tower wall was mostly dry, with some moist spots, Good Book wasn't too wet, definitely could've gotten on some routes.

Thought of this thread last night, here's the same spot from last night.
what a wild difference between the 2 sites like 10 miles apart.
Judging by the pics of the powerlinez I might go check it out this weekend. Thanks!

Great weekend. Overcast sat but sun was beautiful. Everything was really dry and all snow gone.
