Trail conditions on SJ summit hike this weekend. Snow?

Postby 150mph » Thu Jun 25, 2009 11:44 am

Hi all. First post here.

NOAA.org weather forecast looks pretty good. Planning an overnight trip from Marion Mtn. camp to LRV and summit this weekend (or next). Wondering if I need to bring crampons/ice ax or are trails clear now?

Looking forward to my first climb on San Jacinto. (Maybe you'd enjoy the photo layout of my overnight on San Gorgonio last year.)

Trails are totally clear. The whole mtn is pretty much snow free except for maybe down Falls or Snow creeks.

North facing shaded gully areas in Snow Creek or below Tahquitz Peak have small amounts but nothing on any trails that I have seen in the last 3 weeks. Great photos from your last trip!
