Hiked Snow Valley Peak on the east side of the lake. Took the TRT up from Spooner - trail was mostly snowfree with 50-100' patches only. Deepest we encountered was within 100' vertical of summit on the lee side of the ridge, about 24" deep at most.
Almost summer(ish) time

Did you take skis? Glissade?

Thanks for the update.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Ooops, sorry I missed this - skis would have been more work than they were worth. Only 15' feet of glissade for this overenthusiastic hiker
