Middle Sister via Champney Falls Trail, Champney Falls Cutoff, Middle Sister Trail
Date of Hike: Thursday, Jan. 17, 2008
Trail Conditions: Packed powder
Special Equipment Required: Traction helpful on Middle Sister Trail
Comments:
Trail very well packed from Kanc to Champney Falls Cutoff Trail. Barebootable, no traction needed. Champney Falls Cutoff hadn't been used since last snowstorm, but only ankle deep in most places. Middle Sister Trail also appeared to not have been used since last snowstorm. Some deep drifts, but also a lot of bare or ice covered rock. Worn crampons up high, but Stablicers probably would have sufficed.
