water at guyot

[gdonnelly]

Hi, my wife and I are planning to do the Bonds this week, probably spending a night at Guyot. Anyone have any thoughts on the likelihood of water there in early June?

I am assuming given the temps the past week or so, it should be fine . . . I LOVE Guyot . . . Have fun !!

I assume you mean the Guyot campground? There is a spring there that shouldn't be dried up (you can contact AMC to find out for sure). Have a fun trip!

I stayed at Guyot shelter last weekend and the spring was running as strong as I have ever seen it. It's the sweetest water in the Whites at the best campsite. I was there last week and I'm already envious of you.

I forgot to mention that, on Mem. Day weekend, there was copious snow (2-3 feet) from the summit of Bond to the Twinway and in either direction from South Twin almost to Zealand Hut. It was hard packed and hike-able. I mention it just to highlight the fact that the plus-4000 springs will still be running for awhile.

Swamp,

When I stopped into chate with Steve, he mentioned that I had JUST missed you and that you had Guyot Shelter to yourself that weekend. What luck.

Swamp: good to see you back up here again. We need to get Jim and the Doctor back together over a campfire soon.

sli74: so THAT's where you went! I waved wildly in all directions from Mt Davis. Did you see me?
