BSL SEKI loop beta
Posted: Mon Jul 17, 2017 3:30 pm
Hey there,
Well this years adventure I will be tackling the 154 mile loop in August, permit starts @ Roads End clockwise. My question is does anyone have any beta on the conditions, I know several bridges are out and the flow is high with quite a bit of snow on the passes. However did you feel the need for microspikes, were you post-holing over the passes, mosquitoes @ elevation ect… I’ll be resupplying in Independence via Kearsarge pass & Onion Valley, I know the campground is closed due to flooding has anyone been up that way? Should there still be enough traffic to hitch into town on a Wednesday?
Thanks in advance for any help/advice you may be able to offer. Gonna climb Fin Dome, and planning a couple side trips since I have a permit from the 1-18th, any ideas on side trips would be wonderful as well...
Cheers & Happy Summer!
