Title: Snow pack in Gifford Pinchot?
Post by: Martinhunter on June 13, 2011, 07:33:36 AM: I was thinking about heading up to Walupt lake this weekend just to see if I could even make it up there yet and if so maybe do a little fishing. Has anyone by any chance been up in that area lately. Is there still a ton of snow? I can usually get in there Memorial weekend, but again this was not a usual winter and spring.

When I get home I'll PM you the roads we were on...
